Comment (by davidgilman1+macports at gmail.com):

 Ack, disregard that patch-config.h.diff file.  It forced the software to
 look in ${destroot}/etc/resolv.conf for upstream DNS information.  The
 default config of dnsmasq expects that file to be updated by the system as
 connections are made and new DNS servers are made available, however macos
 x doesn't know to update macport's resolv.conf.

 I'm attaching a new config.h patch that keeps dnsmasq checking the
 resolv.conf file that is updated by the system as most users would expect
 the software to do.
