       are now specifically given a NO_DATA response without hitting the system

       Use of dnsdb lookups is not affected.

+JH/19 Bug 2507: Modules: on handling a dynamic-module (lookups) open failure,
+      only retrieve the errormessage once.  Previously two calls to dlerror()
+      were used, and the second one (for mainlog/paniclog) retrieved null
+      information.
