	I've been spreading gaim_debug_warning() calls around for the past  
two days, and I'm baffled as to what's going on. I've gotten it to  
move from the original strncopy() crash to one in  
handle_next_queued_request(), and from there to host_resolved().  
Logging indicates that the DNS resolver is handing libgaim back a  
completely bogus domain name. EarthMkII suggested we track down an  
egyptologist after I pasted one example of it. Attached is my current  
patch, which gets as far as gaim_debug_info("dns", "Got response for  
'%s'\n", query_data->hostname); before crashing, although query_data- 
 >hostname is pretty clearly bogus by that point.
