my DNS resolution is broken, so my ports can't download any tarballs. 
In this case, I reach for dig to see which part of the DNS resolution
chain is failing me. 

At the bare minimum, 'dig' should be an alias for 'drill', which I have 
to say isn't working brilliantly for me on OS X. It suggests I use '-t' 
and then keeps suggesting I use '-t' even when I do use it.

drill feels a bit rough around the edges to me.
