Comment (by nickm):

 I think I'm happy with the branch "bug8380_re"  now.  The new code is 100%
 covered, and it seems to work okay. The XXXX is fixed.

 >Iterating over the list in that function, too - we always end up using
 the ~~*last*~~''first'' address of the preferred address type, where most
 things have round-robin or random behavior when they get multiple answers
 for a DNS query. Are we sure that's what we want?

 I'm not so sure, but it seems like a different ticket.

 (The real fix for that would be to implement proposal 219-expanded-dns.txt
 IMO)
