+"""Generate DNS RR type constants for resolv header files.
+
+resolv/arpa/nameser.h and resolv/arpa/nameser_compat.h contain lists
+of RR type constants.  This script downloads the current definitions
+from the IANA DNS Parameters protocol registry and translates it into
+the two different lists.
+
+Two lists are written to standard output.  The first one contains enum
+constants for resolv/arpa/nameser.h.  The second one lists the
+preprocessor macros for resolv/arpa/nameser_compat.h.
