Greetings,
I'm trying to get 0.13 to compile and it gets to here and hangs.
configure: WARNING: using single-threaded resolver with gethostbyaddr Consider obtaining ARES or a machine with a working gethostbyaddr_r.
[ aside to Paul: Mac OS X, being BSD, has no thread-safe way to resolve names. There is no need to act surprised at this point. But maybe we should write a Netscape-style forking asynchronous resolver? ]
I assume you are speaking of a different type of asynchronous resolver to that found in Netscape 4.x which caused all windows to crash should one window fail to resolve a host name?
