Currently xastir does a fork when it does a DNS lookup. I'm wondering
if the developers still consider that useful. My guess is yes, but I
thought I would ask.

The reason that was done was to provide a timeout for if/when the
lookup does not succeed.  If you come up with a different way to
provide that functionality w/o forking, by all means do so.
