It also doesn't end if the URL is broken from the outset.  I've
tracked the problem to a garbage collection bug in POE::Kernel, fixed
it, and verified that the test program and "make test" work.

The change is committed to CVS, and it will be released to the CPAN
shortly.  If you can't wait for it, CVS instructions are available at
http://poe.perl.org/?Where_to_Get_POE

Thanks for reporting the problem, and thank you for the test case.
