The patch isn't really correct.

With the patch, it'll do two loops, trying ns_t_txt both times.  A patch is 
possible which removes the retry label and the rr_type local.  It would also 
be good to get rid of the gotos and the related apology.

I checked with the main upstream developer and he is open to accepting such a 
patch.
