Stable build 565 is now available from CVS and from the snapshots. It
contains many improvements, but in particular:
* routingTime should no longer have random spikes caused by DNS lookups,
  which cause the node to start rejecting connections and requests when
  it is not actually overloaded. Hopefully this and other changes will
  improve the announcement situation...
* The DNS lookup timeout has been set to 5 minutes.
* IP address autodetection should work a bit better.
* Max data size is now 1/100th of the datastore, not 1/200th. If the
  store size is less than 101MB, the node will grumble loudly on
  startup.
* Other behind-the-scenes improvements, such as the routing table lock
  being held for shorter times, some additional diagnostics vars, and
  more, better, logging, with less impact when logLevel is not DEBUG.

Hopefully this or something really close to it will become 0.5.1-pre1,
so PLEASE test it if at all possible. The same changes are also
available on the unstable branch.
