Subject: Use Net::LibIDN for IDN
Consider using Net::LibIDN too or better instead of Net::IDN::Encode. Why do not use Net::IDN::Encode? 1. It's in alpha state, 2. Last stable version is from 2004, 3. Last stable version... segfaults, 4. It's not XSed. 5. Tons of regexps. Net::LibIDN is XS interface to GNU libidn library. Libidn is stable since 2007. Packaged in most Linux distributions.

So I did. URI::Escape::XS now uses Net::LibIDN if available. Net::IDN::Encode will be used when and only when otherwise. Dan the Maintainer
