(That last word should have been "docs". Sorry)

I haven't found anything how to turn this of, but I hacked
"setup.h" and the problem indeed seems to disappear with the
synchronous resolver. (No crash in dozens of tries.)
If anyone out there could tell me how to disable asynchronous
resolving I would change the build script to do this and then
I can close this bug on our end.

If I can do anything to provide you with more info regarding
the crash in the asynchronous resolver, please say so.
