Generally agree, (and that's what we usually do in GLib). However, for a general purpose DNS user-space implementation I think it would be good to have something that can be used in both scenarios.

That's a coherent argument, but that argument is also, I think, probably responsible for virtually all of the exploitable offset-from-NULL vulnerabilities shipped in C code.
