We need a better solution than this.  But for now it should be okay.

ADNS is fast and flexible.  It used for two reasons:  On Windows it is
easier to use ADNS than the native Windows Resolver API.  For the KDNS
keyserver helper we need a way to specify a namesever; the ADNS API
allows this.

GnuPG on Unix works without.
