patch for email DNS bug

Description Jacob Smullyan 2007-09-28 15:35:25 UTC
The SVN version of formencode has a bug fix for a serious bug in 0.7.1 that causes the Email validator, when verifying domains, to reject many perfectly OK email addresses.  (It was my bug, alas.)  The attached is identical to 0.7.1-r1 except for patching this one issue with the code in SVN.

Reproducible: Always
