gtk/main.c:resolv_update_cb has:

  if (host_name_lookup_process(NULL)) {
    if (pkt_scrollw->window)
        gdk_window_invalidate_rect(pkt_scrollw->window, NULL, TRUE);
    if (tv_scrollw->window)
        gdk_window_invalidate_rect(tv_scrollw->window, NULL, TRUE);
  }

You should be able to call gdk_window_invalidate_rect directly or set
new_resolved_objects in addr_resolv.c, which would trigger the redraw
when resolv_update_cb is called.
