It looks like the c-ares community reacted pretty quickly to the DNS
poisoning flaw discovered recently
(http://daniel.haxx.se/projects/c-ares/mail/c-ares-archive-2008-07/) while
the ADNS community hasn't (http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/MIMG-7ECL5U). 
This is probably a good hint that we should switch.
