 * To use libasyncns allocate an asyncns_t object with
 * asyncns_new(). This will spawn a number of worker threads (or processes, depending on what is available) which
 * are subsequently used to process the queries the controlling
 * program issues via asyncns_getaddrinfo() and
 * asyncns_getnameinfo(). Use asyncns_free() to shut down the worker
 * threads/processes.
 *
 * Since libasyncns may fork off new processes you have to make sure that
 * your program is not irritated by spurious SIGCHLD signals.
