This option disables the behavior and makes glibc perform the IPv6
and IPv4 requests sequentially (at the cost of some slowdown of the
resolving process).

+.BR single-request-reopen " (since glibc 2.9)"
+The resolver uses the same socket for the A and AAAA requests. Some hardware
+mistakenly only sends back one reply. When that happens the client sytem will
+sit and wait for the second reply. Turning this option on changes this behavior
+so that if two requests from the same port are not handled correctly it will
+close the socket and open a new one before sending the second request.
