Henrik fixed the crash-on-redirect-in-source-mode bug because I was
bugging him incessantly about it (it was causing major problems for me),
and he sent me the patch for libwww 3.0. I believe he also put the fix
into version 3.1, which is supposed to go public on August 14. I assume he
didn't bother sending the patch out to the list as a whole, or putting it
on the server, because nobody else was complaining, and version 3.0 will
soon be obsolete anyway.

The moral of the story is, the squeaky wheel gets the patch.

Sending mail to Henrik these days yields an auto-reply saying he is on
vacation until August 6.
