After quickly glancing around, I noticed that the 3.x interface has no
hesiod_free to free strings.  Are folks just supposed to use free?

If so, that's an API bug because it requires that my app use the same libc
used by the hesiod library, which may be virtually impossible to guarantee
in a portable manner in a fully dynamic library environment (Windows comes
to mind).
