[In reply to]

( I coudln't resist )
http://traceroute.sourceforge.net/
#define DEF_RADB_SERVER "whois.radb.net"
#define DEF_RADB_SERVICE "whois"
const char *get_as_path (const char *query) {
server = getenv ("RA_SERVER");
if (!server) server = DEF_RADB_SERVER;
service = getenv ("RA_SERVICE");
if (!service) service = DEF_RADB_SERVICE;
n = snprintf (buf, sizeof (buf), "%s\r\n", query);
Yadi, yada...
So unless radb croak... you'll be fine.
