connection implementations, as well as support for
SRV, AXFR, MAILA, MAILB, and ANY query types.
Also, minor improvements in handling unrecognized

A new CandidateDomains() method was added to the Resolver class. Checks for completeness of the received answer were added. Each name server may be specified now as 'servername:port'. /etc/resolv.conf parsing was improved, and more options are taken into account. Other minor improvements were introduced.
