Assuming that download.example.com is round-robined to a bunch
of machines, but I only want to use some of them and not others
(e.g. because some are close to me or fast and others not), it
would be very useful to have an option to overide the results
of gethostbyname and define the IP-addresses
Is this anything like the recent inquiry, Wget Feature request IP
address override.?

Maybe this should make it into the FAQ, people ask for it quite often.
Perhaps so.
