In admin/FOR-RELEASE a bug is described in url-http.el that is said to
come from url-http-parse-headers. However, I tracked this bug down to
a bad "(kill-buffer (current-buffer))" in the function
url-http-handle-authentication. The following fix cured the problem
completely for me, so I would suggest to implement it instead of the
suggested fix from the bug's original message which could not work
as far as I understand.

Please remove the entry in FOR-RELEASE as well, if that fixes the problem.
