Updated build instruction since I now offer a complete ares-package with all

the patches already applied. No need to apply any patches manually anymore.

ares 1.1.1 is still compatible.

How To Build libcurl to Use ares For Asynch Name Resolves
=========================================================
ares:
ftp://athena-dist.mit.edu/pub/ATHENA/ares/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
http://curl.haxx.se/dev/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
http://curl.sourceforge.net/dev/ares-1.1.1.tar.gz
ares patch:
http://curl.haxx.se/dev/ares-curl2.diff
c-ares, a patched and improved version of ares:
http://curl.haxx.se/beta/arescurl-1.0-pre1.tar.gz
Mac OS X quirk:
ares 1.1.1 contains too old versions of config.guess and config.sub. Copy
the ones from the curl source tree in to the ares source tree before you
run configure.
NOTE
libcurl works with ares 1.1.1, but several patches and improvements have
been put into the c-ares package which has made it more portable and better
working on several platforms.
Build ares
==========
1. unpack the ares-1.1.1 archive
2. cd ares-src
3. patch -p0 < ares-curl-patch
4. ./configure
5. make
1. unpack the ares archive
2. cd ares-dir

Build libcurl to use ares
=========================
1. Move the ares source/build tree to subdirectory in the curl root named
'ares'.
2. ./buildconf
3. ./configure --enable-ares
4. make
1. name the ares source directory 'ares' in the curl source directory
2. ./configure --enable-ares
3. make
If the configure script detects IPv6 support), you need to explicitly disable
If the configure script enables IPv6 support you need to explicitly disable
that (--disable-ipv6) since ares isn't IPv6 compatible (yet).
Please let me know how it builds, runs, works or whatever. I had to do some
fairly big changes in some code parts to get this to work.
