+This is what's new and changed in the c-ares 1.4.0 release:
+
+ o fixed VS2005 compiler warnings due to time_t being 64bit
+ o introduced cryptographically secure transaction IDs
+ o added ares_save_options()
+ o added ares_destroy_options()
+ o added ares_process_fd()
+ o fixed undefined return value in init_by_resolv_conf() function for windows
+ o added ares_parse_ns_reply()
+ o fix failure to get the search sequence of /etc/hosts and DNS from
+   /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/host.conf or /etc/svc.conf when /etc/resolv.conf
+   did not exist
+ o when domains were sert in the options struct, and there were domain/search
+   entries in /etc/resolv.conf, the domains of the options struct would be
+   overridden
+ o removed a couple of potential zero size memory allocations
+ o fixed the line endings in areslib.dsp
+
