fix segfault in DNS mapping lookup code

the allocatorthread got pointers to RAM which were reallocated
behind the back, and if realloc() couldn't grow in-place, lead
to segfaults in applications that do a lot of DNS-lookups such
as webbrowsers.

closes #66
closes #31

thanks to @ravomavain for tracking down the issue.
