This is a fundamental issue with musl:
https://wiki.musl-libc.org/future-ideas

I thought there was a solution using the mdns package (mDNSResponder from 
Apple), but I could be misinterpreting what I have read.

I saw a go implementation of avahi2dns, but this is for an initramfs so trying 
to keep things small.

I'll keep looking around but if anyone else has any suggestions I'd appreciate 
it.

Thanks, Matt
