What the heck is this? Oh, is this "ghttp" by another name?
We're not depending on that anymore.

How does it "fail horribly"? I know other people are using it just
fine. Regardless, moving to 1.4 is absolutely the wrong answer. If
you're going to fall back, fall back to 1.6.

No, this is a problem with scheme. Lazy evaluation sucks. When a
g-wrap symbol changes, it implies that every reference to that symbol
needs to change, too... But symbol reference checks are at runtime,
not compile time.
In reality, the scheme interface should not have been renamed unless
the API was changed, and even then it should be changed sparingly.
I'll go fix that in the g-wrap spec.
