Information:
------------

Libdnsres provides a non-blocking thread-safe interface for resolving DNS
names.  It is built on top of libevent and makes heavy use of the *BSD
resolver code.  This is essentially an ugly hack to get a non-blocking
DNS resolver for my own personal use.  That spells out to: use at your
own risk, I know that the code is ugly.
