resolv.conf(5) fails to mention some options

Bug Description

The following resolver options have been implemented in Ubuntu eglibc (but not Debian eglibc) but are not mentioned in resolv.conf(5).

use-vc
no-tld-query

(The option 'single-request-reopen' is also not mentioned but this option is implemented in Debian as well as Ubuntu, so I have filed a report about that lacuna in the Debian BTS, bug report #699387.)

It's not clear to me whether you want me to do something here.
Maybe I just get this message because I'm auto subscribed to
the Ubuntu man pages BTS...

Cheers,

Ahhh -- now I understand. You sent the patch separately.
That's exactly right for me.
