GStreamer's libsoup element has the same problem.

From the browser plugin:

Comment 1 Dan Winship 2008-08-18 15:30:53 UTC 
might make sense to combine this with bug 532778 (GThread-less async DNS) and push the result into gio

filed as bug 548466. keeping this one open for now until it's clearer exactly how things are going to go
Comment 3 Dan Winship 2008-09-30 18:33:19 UTC 
OK, the plan is now definitely to use the GResolver code from bug 548466. If that can't make it into glib for 2.20, or if glib 2.20 isn't going to be out before GNOME 2.26, then I'll just copy it into libsoup for 2.26.
Comment 4 Dan Winship 2009-08-10 20:33:01 UTC 
fixed in master
