This is one of those plugins as well. Configure would complain about
nslookup as check_dns is just a wrapper to that command. There are a few
failure situations during configure ranging from nslookup not being
found or the nslookup command line syntax not being recognized. You
might need to pass --with-nslookup-command=PATH to configure if it's
installed in a non-standard location. If the nslookup command syntax
isn't recognized the plugins guys would probably be interested in your
os version and nslookup version at the least.
