This puzzeled me a bit so I took another look into the original code.
Do I see this right that we have only limited IPv6 support in the
resolver code?  For instance, write_record appears to handle DNS_TYPE_A,
but not DNS_TYPE_AAAA.

CCing Pierre, hopefully he's still around.  Pierre, can you please
have a look and suggest how to go forward here?

Would you mind to split this into a patchset with patches for different
tasks?  ATM I'm a bit concerned about the ntoh{sl} calls, given the
noticable absence of IPv6 support...


Thanks,
