Haha, no worries at all. Let me help you with that egg...
I do have a dev resource I could put on an iPhone patch for c-ares for
a day, maybe two. The deal is, troubleshooting iPhone's DNS
implementation and knowing where to patch c-ares is out of our gamut -
it's not something we'd tackle at all without help.
If someone who knows c-ares well would like to collaborate with us
directly we can handle the iPhone part. Just need some guidance about
what to look for.
If anyone wants to volunteer, email me directly - no need to go back
and forth here. I'm confident that if a c-ares expert is willing to do
some support for us we can get a fix in place that we can then share
with the community.
