I found time to set up a VM with Debian Unstable, installed "resolvconf",
and tested this.  Without the patch, same error, with the patch, proper
DNS :-)

Merged to master, 2.7_beta1-to-be

    dns: fix systemd dns-updown script

    In the resolvconf part of the script there was one instance of a dynamic
    variable using _* left. The _* ones do not work as the regular ones, but
    only when you directly place them within ${!}, not indirectly using a
    variable.
