The rule is simple: do DNS resolutions with a thread-unsafe resolver in
a milter and you crash. Now you just have to make a list of
thread-unsafe resolvers in libc. Here is the first entry of your list:
NetBSD<2.0

The workaround: link with BIND 9's libbind.a. The milter (and all the
libraries it links with) should also use nres_* DNS functions instead of
res_* functions. That way it won't build at all with a thread-unsafe
resolver.
