Going slightly off topic, but even though sources can be patched to
fix build issues due to musl's lack of nss.h, it doesn't really make
any sense to build nss modules for musl, since these modules can only
ever be used by glibc.

e.g. we have musl patches in recipes such as nss-myhostname, but the
real fix is probably just to not build the recipe at all for musl.

In this particular case I don't know whether mDNSResponder is tied
tightly to nss or whether the nss module is an optional add-on but
that should probably be determined before coming up with fix.
