They have never been implemented in Cygwin itself. Cygwin only has a piece of source called minires, a simple resolver lib depending on the underlying Windows resolver, providing the res_FOO symbols from resolv.h. The nameserver symbols from nameser.h are not part of the Cywin core lib. Maybe you have more luck with the (unmaintained) bind libs?
