Minires-0.98-1: a test package ready to upload


Attention maintainers making use of minires:

I have a new test version, minires-0.98, which interfaces to the
built-in Windows resolver, on systems starting with Windows 2000.

The package auto-detects the system it is running on and acts accordingly.
However if the file /etc/resolv.conf is readable, the package reverts
to contacting the name servers directly (as it does on Win9x and NT4.0).

The main reason it's a test package is because of the mapping of
the Windows error codes to resolver error codes.
It's hard to cover all possible cases. The test package writes to stderr
when it finds unexpected outcomes. 

I would appreciate it receiving feedback if you use this package.

Because it's a test version the setup.hint's appear below.

Pierre
