Thanks for the backtrace - does the patch below fix it? (If so, ra_dav
must treat a request failure as non-fatal at some point, and carry on
using the session; this is a legitimate use of the neon API but might
produce strange behaviour, since failing DNS lookups will be retried on
each request in the current implementation)

(BTW, can you CC suspected neon bugs to neon@webdav.org?)
