Martin: for this specific error, this would help. But... why should the
resolver lie about the entries in the database? You would at least need to
add a flag for "need this to open a connection" (as opposed to the "want to
read the database") case, in my opinion.

Besides: I've also seen the "host/network down/unreachable" case.
Hm, just tried; this is fixed now, and the PROTONOTSUPP should be
added.
