+** Bug in url-http-parse-headers, reported in
+From: Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@zeus.com>
+Date: Tue, 28 Sep 2004 16:13:13 +0100
+
+Fetching a url with url-retrieve can reult in an anrbitrary buffer
+being killed if a 401 (or possibly a 407) result is encountered:
+
+url-http-parse-headers calls url-http-handle-authentication,
+which can call url-retrieve.
+
+This results in the current buffer being killed, and a new http buffer
+being generated. However, when the old http buffer is killed, emacs
+picks the top buffer from the list as the new current buffer, so by the
+time we get to the end of url-http-parse-headers, _that_ buffer is marked
+as dead even though it is not necessarily a url buffer, so next time the
+url libraries reap their dead buffers, an innocent bystander buffer is
+killed instead (and an obsolete http buffer may be left lying around too).
+
+A possible fix (which I am currently using) is to call set-buffer
+on the return value of url-http-parse-headers:
+
+      (case url-http-response-status
+	(401
+	 ;; The request requires user authentication.  The response
+	 ;; MUST include a WWW-Authenticate header field containing a
+	 ;; challenge applicable to the requested resource.  The
+	 ;; client MAY repeat the request with a suitable
+	 ;; Authorization header field.
+	 (url-mark-buffer-as-dead (current-buffer))
+	 (set-buffer (url-http-handle-authentication nil)))
+etc ....
+
+which makes sure that it is the right http buffer that is current when
+we come to mark the http buffers as dead.
