I have a student for whom package install is failing like this:

tcp-connect: connection failed
 address: pkg.racket-lang.org
 port number: 443
 step: 6
 system error: Operation not permitted; errno=1
 context...:
  /Applications/Racket v5.3.6/collects/openssl/mzssl.rkt:1431:0: ssl-connect
  /Applications/Racket v5.3.6/collects/net/url.rkt:222:2: redirection-loop

loop


My guess is that errno=1 wouldn't be related to connectivity problems, but that 
the OS is actually rejecting the tcp-connect. I'm wondering if this could be 
related to gatekeeper?  I'm going to tell my student to run through the 
gatekeeper enable-permissions rigamarole, but I thought that we didn't have 
that problem any more.

Also, I have no idea what "step: 6" means.

Any advice appreciated!

John
