[boost] [asio] Resolving Aliases

Hi Guys,

While writing the HTTP client in the C++ Networking Library, I ran
into a bizarre problem: resolving virtual hosts.

For example, given a host named 'bucket.s3.amazonaws.com', trying to
resolve it with Boost.Asio (in 1.35) causes a 'Host not found
(authoritative)' error. Is this a known issue, and if so what's my
alternative?

TIA
