Doc Text:
.The `glibc` DNS stub resolver correctly processes parallel queries with identical transaction IDs Prior to this update, the DNS stub resolver in the GNU C library `glibc` did not process responses to parallel queries with identical transaction IDs correctly. Consequently, when the transaction IDs were equal, the second parallel response was never matched to a query, resulting in a timeout and retry. With this update, the second parallel response is now recognized as valid. As a result, the `glibc` DNS stub resolver avoids excessive timeouts due to unrecognized responses.
