int ares_dup(ares_channel_t **dest, const ares_channel_t *source)

The ares_dup(3) function duplicates an existing communications channel for name service lookups.  If it returns successfully, ares_dup(3) will set the variable pointed to by dest to a handle used to identify the name service channel.  The caller should invoke ares_destroy(3) on the handle when the channel is no longer needed.
