nslookup is not a good test, usually it does not normally use gethostbyname or
getaddrinfo, but rather sends DNS requests itself (bypassing the local
resolver).  Try some other programs, eg ping, telnet (and if possible one that
uses getaddrinfo and one that uses gethostbyname). 

Is BROKEN_GETADDRINFO defined in config.h for either of 3.7.1p2 or 3.8.1p1?

You can also try this test program,, which I wrote last time we had reports of
problems with getaddrinfo:
