[Richard Stallman <rms@gnu.org>]

Does this still fail?  If so, would someone please fix it?
Please ack when it is fixed.

Sometime after 2006-10-26 URL redirects stopped working correctly
(Emacs CVS of 2006-09-19 and 2006-10-26 works, 2006-10-31 and
2006-11-19 don't work), perhaps due to changes made in revision 1.36
of url-http.el.

For example, <http://www.cliki.net/cliki> returns the following
headers, but `url-retrieve' runs the callback function instead of
first retrieving the new location:

HTTP/1.0 302 Redirected
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2006 17:50:59 GMT
Server: Araneida/0.84
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html
Last-Modified: Fri, 17 Nov 2006 17:50:59 GMT
Location: http://www.cliki.net/CLiki
Pragma: no-cache
Expires: Fri, 30 Oct 1998 14:19:41 GMT

The above-mentioned working versions retrieve the redirected URL
correctly.
