Caching DNS proxy for Linux with ability to change TTL?

Situation: there is a laptop with Ubuntu and unstable 3G Internet, sometimes degrading to disgusting GPRS. I would like to sweeten my life a little by caching DNS queries. And caching for a long time, increasing the TTL ten times, for example.
Actually the question is: who can do it? I have been looking for such an opportunity in the wonderful dnsmasq for a long time, but apparently not fate.
PS Maybe I don't want that at all, and there are better solutions?
PPS I am aware of a separate cache in browsers. I use not only the browser.

Your system already comes with a dns caching service called nscd which is part of glibc. It will easily rewrite TTL to the one you need.

How do you like polipo? Small and lots of settings.

Why has no one specified pdnsd?

You don't have to do this. Cache http.
