I set a local nameserver in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf (provided by the dhcp3-client package):

------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ grep prepend /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf 
prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1; 

$ dpkg -S /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf     
dhcp3-client: /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
