How can I make sure that an application doesn't get stuck in the mainloop when using libevent's DNS lookups?Hi, Tassilo! Segfaults and assertions are usually not intended behavior; can you provide stack traces for either?
Yes, give me a little while, please. I need to get rid of the perl blubber around it to turn it into a plain C program.
What I can tell you already now is that I called each of them from inside an active callback which may well be the culprit here.
