Ok, sorry about that.  The records aren't visible from here for some
reason, and on my netbsd host arla works well with an empty CellServDB.

Arla does do some trickery. There are resolvers out there that need to read
resolv.conf at runtime, so startarla copies it into the cache dir before we
chroot.  There are probably a fair number of cases where that's not enough.

Any ideas?
