You're missing that my comment is about Jaguar, and the followup isn't
about PHP or fetching web pages but about application availability. :)

But.
Personally, if I was fetching a URL, I'd just open a bloody socket
myself.
It's not like it's hard to fprintf(sockfp, "GET %s HTTP/1.1\n\n", url);
That doesn't handle cookies and proxies and name-based virtual hosts,
but supporting all that together is two or three pages of code at the
most.
Including the select() so you don't beachball if the net is slow.
