The idl files are compiled into .h / .c files, which can then
subsequently be used by other source files. If you'd like to use
"struct dns_res_rec", as generated from dns.idl, then it's just a matter
of including librpc/gen_ndr/dns.h, which corresponds to the header file
./bin/default/librpc/gen_ndr/dns.h , generated from dns.idl by pidl.

Cheers, David
