Oops, s/is/isn't/ of course.

Please try the current code:

	* dns.el (dns-set-servers): Renamed from dns-parse-resolv-conf.  Call
	nslookup if resolv.conf isn't available.
	(dns-query): Rename from query-dns.
	(dns-query-cached): Rename from query-dns-cached.

Does spam-gmane.el use the functions `query-dns' or
`query-dns-cached'?  Then they must be renamed there.

Bye, Reiner.
