+      (Petr Jelinek)
+
+      If you have more than 8 IPs behind one DNS name, you need to
+      use EDNS0 protocol to query.  Only getaddrinfo_a()/getaddrinfo()
+      supports it, libevent does not.  To enable add 'options edns0'
+      to /etc/resolv.conf.

+(1) To enable EDNS0, add 'options edns0' to /etc/resolv.conf
 
 `./configure` also has flags `--enable-evdns` and `--disable-evdns` which
 turn off automatic probing and force use of either `evdns` or `getaddrinfo_a()`.
