Changelog
+Yang Tse (26 Jan 2010)
+- Constantine Sapuntzakis' and Joshua Kwan's work done in the last four months
+ relative to the asynchronous DNS lookups, along with with some integration
+ adjustments I have done are finally committed to CVS.
+
+ Currently these enhancements will benefit builds done using c-ares on any
+ platform as well as Windows builds using the default threaded resolver.
+
+ This release does not make generally available POSIX threaded DNS lookups
+ yet. There is no configure option to enable this feature yet. It is possible
+ to experimantally try this feature running configure with compiler flags that
+ make simultaneous definition of preprocessor symbols USE_THREADS_POSIX and
+ HAVE_PTHREAD_H, as well as whatever reentrancy compiler flags and linker ones
+ are required to link and properly use pthread_* functions on each platform.

- Mike Crowe made libcurl return CURLE_COULDNT_RESOLVE_PROXY when it is the
proxy that cannot be resolved when using c-ares. This matches the behaviour
