- Phil Blundell: If you ask ares_gethostbyname() to do an AF_INET6 lookup and

the target host has only A records, it automatically falls back to an
  AF_INET lookup and gives you the A results.  However, if the target host has
  a CNAME record, this behaviour is defeated since the original query does
  return some data even though ares_parse_aaa_reply() doesn't consider it
  relevant. Here's a small patch to make it behave the same with and without
  the CNAME.
