Bug#845200: libnet-dns-perl: Setting $/ to "\r\n" breaks Net::DNS

Setting $/ breaks perl itself.
Net::DNS reads /etc/resolv.conf using:
local $_;
while (<$filehandle>) {
s/[;#].*$//; # strip
comments
/^nameserver/ && do {
...
}
Not only does <$filehandle> return the entire file as it enters the loop,
but the $ in the regex also fails to work as advertised.
