I think Derrick already has equivalent changes to is hesiod
library to do VC and large responses.

I'm not quite sure what the change to ns_main does and I haven't had time to
look at it...  However, with the changes I recently posted, I did not have
problems with Bind 4.8.3 actually retrieving multiple record responses as
large as 2k, and they will work up to 8K.  I think in my next round, I 
will make the buffer dynamically allocated.

I think Derricks current problem is related to loading individual TXT records
that are each greater than 256 bytes of text.
