[gaim-migrate @ 16920] Cancelable DNS queries. This eliminates crashes when you cancel a connection attempt while we're waiting for a response from a DNS server. I tested with all three methods, so they SHOULD be ok. Let me know if you have problems. I should be around today, starting in maybe an hour. I feel like it's kinda dumb for us to have three implementations for the same thing. I want to get rid of the child-process method (currently used in Unix and OS-X) and use the thread-based method (currently used in Windows) everywhere. Then we can get rid of the third method, too (currently used when !Unix and !OS-X and !Windows) Any objections? committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>
