Previous versions of htdig would keep trying a server for every URL even
if it went down in the middle of a run. But of course in almost all cases,
this just means that htdig will have to wait until the connection times
out for each URL before continuing.

Now (i.e. 3.1.5 and the current 3.2 code), htdig will mark the server as
dead and stop trying to connect. This is usually what you want to do,
though perhaps a config attribute is needed for this.
