res_init() is called from different places in sockets library. It depends on global _res variable containing a state. The problem is that if __BIND_RES_TEXT macro is not defined, _res is not initialized. Depending on compiler and build optimization this can fill the variable with garbage that is later used by res_init(). Fix is trivial - explicitly initialize _res.
