[ircd-ratbox] DNS timeouts with kqueue on FreeBSD 5.4 + ULE scheduler

[Aaron Sethman]

The way you'd need to do it is this. Look for adns_qf_owner in src/adns.c
and where you see that change it to adns_qf_owner|adns_qf_usevc.  There 
might be some other flags already ORed together keep those other flags 
there too.  Mind you tcp isn't going to be real efficient, but it'll work.
