As the `query-dns' or `query-dns-cached' are not used anywhere else, I
think it isn't worth to add aliases.  (dns.el shouldn't define
functions out of its name space.)

I'd suggest to edebug `dns-query' (go to the defun in dns.el and press
`C-u C-M-x'.  Step thru the lines using `SPC' (see the menu "Edebug"
for more commands.
