Well I installed via FTP onto my Zaurus about a month ago. The change
documenting resolv.conf.tail in that manpage was made after the 3.7 release.
Regardless, the installation shouldn't remove resolv.conf.tail.

Thanks for the clarification, but I'm thinking your man pages must be
-current, because I can find no mention of resolv.conf.tail in any man
pages on my 3.7 (cdrom) system. The -current man pages on openbsd.org
website appear to confirm the behaviour already present in cdrom release.

The resolv.conf.tail file is used to pass extra options to the
resolver. dhclient effectively appends the options in resolv.conf.tail
to the resolv.conf file.
