AFAIK, the Tengine fork has a patch for this.

I was not talking about falling back to libresolv because it is very
likely to block the nginx event loop or introduce extra OS threads for
no good. I was talking about extracing nameserver addresses
automatically from /etc/resolv.conf (or similar places in other exotic
operating systems) and feed them into nginx's current nonblocking
resolver.

And yes, for now, the latter workaround should be the simplest for you :)
