I haven't done library preloading yet myself, but wouldn't it be
possible to overwrite gethostbyname() and insert a Tor-DNS-query there?
Well, of course, one need to hack some of the Tor-Interfaces in order to
make a DNS-lookup... like there are more than 200 unused command-codes
in Socks4a.

Just some early-in-the-morning-not-having-nuff-coffee-yet suggestion,
