Subject: a pointer to async-dns alternatives.
X-Git-Tag: tor-0.0.2pre8~121
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e061b70dbf1a55244a66f1e6d7a0085fbebb5857;p=thirdparty%2Ftor.git

a pointer to async-dns alternatives.

apparently glibc 2.2.4 and windows both have async gethostbynames now.
we'll want to make use of them if they're available (via autoconf).
