By the way, an interesting case to test is www.crl.net and www.crl.com
(including Subir's Lynx Links) - host names with lots of A records,
more than fit in the buffer of 128 bytes.  A trace from accessing
those servers shows how addresses are omitted when not everything
fits.  Hopefully it's not just coincidence that it works right there,
but I don't know any other servers with lots of A's to test against.
