I got BinkD to build in Haiku R1 beta 1.

I haven't tried building Husky's HPT yet but it should be fine.

Most of the work for the BeOS port of BinkD had already been done years ago, 
but the build was failing for Haiku.

Here's the fix that I sent to the binkd-dev list:

Hello,

BinkD will compile and run in Haiku R1 beta 1 x64 (2018):

~/src/binkd> ./binkd -vv
Binkd 1.1a-99 (May  4 2019 02:55:28/Haiku)
Compilation flags: gcc, amiga_4d_outbound.
Facilities: fts5004 ipv6

However res_search() is found in -lnetwork, not -lresolv.

I'm unfamiliar with Autoconf, but here is a patch:
