Actually, that is a different beast. libcurl includes its own async DNS routine on Windows, you have to jump through some extra hoops to use c-ares. I only vaguely remember attempting to use c-ares during one release cycle. I don't remember why we reverted back.

There have been many changes to and many versions of c-ares since then, but of course that is no guarantee the issues we experienced have been fixed. We've been using c-ares on the Mac all along without problems.
