Summary:                    [patch] Patch to make DUNDi load balance across
hosts with the same weight
Description: 
Presently in 1.4.25 dundi lookups return the first existing member.  If
multiple members tie for the top rank, only the first host is called.

By trivially changing the function passed to qsort, tied weights are
shuffled within the tied partition.  Overall ranking of weights is
maintained.  The result: when dundi lookup fetches the first member, it
load balances across the top tier weight.  I've uploaded the patch as a
udiff in the information field.

irish,

 while this is a great contribution to dundi, 1.4 branch is feature
freeze, please attach a patch against trunk and let us hope someone from
the developer will pick and evaluate your patch.
