In our forked DNS resolver processes, don't bail out if we get a retryable error while reading from our parent socket. I think EAGAIN and EWOULDBLOCK never happen because this is a non-blocking socket AND because we're using select (seems like we'd be fine using one or the other, and it's not necessary to use both?). I believe this is correct behavior and we should be doing this same thing everywhere we read from sockets. I think we probably don't check for EINTR in many places where we should.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go

HOWTOs in the "Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
