Hi Harlan,
Perhaps I'm missing something but the callback for async dns is:
_lookup_response( int errCode, struct evutil_addrinfo* info, void* data )
Where the "data" member is what you pass into evdns_getaddrinfo and can be
anything you want. So, you already have a place to put your context don't
you?
