+Build
+=====
+
+If you update curl from CVS, and put 'ares' in a subdirectory in the curl
+root, you should be able to build libcurl to use ares for asynch name
+resolves! Just make sure you:
+
+1. run ./buildconf
+2. run './configure --enable-ares'
+3. run 'make'
+
+If the configure script autodetects IPv6 support, you need to explicitly
+disable that 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.
