Does Nginx honor DNS TTLs for proxy upstreams?

Thanks Maxim, that would be great but is it really supposed to work (in
the stable branch)? The 1.0.3 which was deployed up to now gave me

no host in upstream ""

errors, with 1.0.6 I am getting

invalid URL prefix in "http://"

errors. If it helps I can try to setup a simplified test case, because
posting the full configuration would certainly exceed some acceptable
message limit of this list/forum.
