Thanks, Robin. 

I tested master, and it wasn't working properly for me. I traced the problem to 
the simplification of DNS_Mgr::AsyncLookupName. For both lookups, it was using 
AsyncRequestNameMap. I split off the processing of TXT queries so that it'd use 
AsyncRequestTextMap. That was committed in: 
<https://github.com/grigorescu/bro/commit/a1c0b853fe180ee0dc97880653d2d274b7e08e21>.

I also have a couple of other small commits, which are ready in 
<https://github.com/grigorescu/bro/commits/topic/vladg/dns_txt_queries>. One 
has some fixes for the BIF, and one switches the MHR script to use TXT queries, 
with a newly introduced threshold.

I tested these manually, and they work for me. Unfortunately, I don't have any 
good ideas on how we'd go about writing some tests for the TXT queries - this 
was the one case where being able to load the cache from a file did seem useful.
