+/* Configuration:
+ * adns_init reads /etc/resolv.conf, which is expected to be (broadly
+ * speaking) in the format expected by libresolv. adns_init_strcfg
+ * is instead passed a string which is interpreted as if it were the
+ * contents of resolv.conf. In general, configuration which is set
+ * later overrides any that is set earlier.
+ *
+ * Standard directives understood in resolv.conf:
+ *
+ * nameserver <address>
+ * Must be followed by the IP address of a nameserver. Several
+ * nameservers may be specified, and they will be tried in the order
+ * found. There is a compiled in limit, currently 5, on the number
+ * of nameservers. (libresolv supports only 3 nameservers.)
+ *
+ * search <domain> ...
+ * Specifies the search list for queries which specify
+ * adns_qf_search. This is a list of domains to append to the query
+ * domain. The query domain will be tried as-is either before all
+ * of these or after them, depending on the ndots option setting
+ * (see below).
+ *
+ * domain <domain>
+ * This is present only for backward compatibility with obsolete
+ * versions of libresolv. It should not be used, and is interpreted
+ * by adns as if it were `search' - note that this is subtly
+ * different to libresolv's interpretation of this directive.
+ *
+ * sortlist <addr>/<mask> ...
+ * Should be followed by a sequence of IP-address and netmask pairs,
+ * separated by spaces. They may be specified as
+ * eg. 172.30.206.0/24 or 172.30.206.0/255.255.255.0. Currently up
+ * to 15 pairs may be specified (but note that libresolv only
+ * supports up to 10).
+ *
+ * options
+ * Should followed by one or more options, separated by spaces.
+ * Each option consists of an option name, followed by optionally
+ * a colon and a value. Options are listed below.
+ *
+ * Non-standard directives understood in resolv.conf:
+ *
+ * clearnameservers
+ * Clears the list of nameservers, so that further nameserver lines
+ * start again from the beginning.
+ *
+ * include <filename>
+ * The specified file will be read.
+ *
+ * Additionally, adns will ignore lines in resolv.conf which start with a #.
+ *
+ * Standard options understood:
+ *
+ * debug
+ * Enables debugging output from the resolver, which will be written
+ * to stderr.
+ *
+ * ndots:<count>
+ * Affects whether queries with adns_qf_search will be tried first
+ * without adding domains from the searchlist, or whether the bare
+ * query domain will be tried last. Queries which contain at least
+ * <count> dots will be tried bare first. The default is 1.
+ *
+ * Non-standard options understood:
+ *
+ * adns_checkc:none
+ * adns_checkc:entex
+ * adns_checkc:freq
+ * Changes the consistency checking frequency; this overrides the
+ * setting of adns_if_check_entex, adns_if_check_freq, or neither,
+ * in the flags passed to adns_init.
+ *
+ * There are a number of environment variables which can modify the
+ * behaviour of adns. They take effect only if adns_init is used, and
+ * the caller of adns_init can disable them using adns_if_noenv. In
+ * each case there is both a FOO and an ADNS_FOO; the latter is
+ * interpreted later so that it can override the former. Unless
+ * otherwise stated, environment variables are interpreted after
+ * resolv.conf is read, in the order they are listed here.
+ *
+ * RES_CONF, ADNS_RES_CONF
+ * A filename, whose contets are in the format of resolv.conf.
+ *
+ * RES_CONF_TEXT, ADNS_RES_CONF_TEXT
+ * A string in the format of resolv.conf.
+ *
+ * RES_OPTIONS, ADNS_RES_OPTIONS
+ * These are parsed as if they appeared in the `options' line of a
+ * resolv.conf. In addition to being parsed at this point in the
+ * sequence, they are also parsed at the very beginning before
+ * resolv.conf or any other environment variables are read, so that
+ * any debug option can affect the processing of the configuration.
+ *
+ * LOCALDOMAIN, ADNS_LOCALDOMAIN
+ * These are interpreted as if their contents appeared in a `search'
+ * line in resolv.conf.
