If I'm not mistaken, pdns-recursor uses swapcontext which isn't
available on ARM. I've tried to install it on my SheevaPlug a couple of
weeks back when 3.2 appeared, but with no luck.
On the #powerdns IRC channel I was pointed at another library that could
replace/emulate(?) swapcontext, but I couldn't compile that either.

I found this
