I had this code in libwww for a long time as part of the URL canonicalization algorithm. However, resolving names in your own domain mostly gives you the local address and there was no way that I could get a cross-platform implementation reliably finding it's own domain name. Factors like NIS and badly configured domains makes this impossible in practise so I had to disable it. Sad, huh?
