On second thought, while it's easy to say that this should happen when only one URL has been tried, it's really difficult to say what should happen when some URLs have succeeded, and some have failed. This is really part of the whole "how should Wget handle error conditions, particularly for recursions" thing, which needs some more thorough discussion. So, looks like I'll probably wait on this until 1.12. - -- Micah J.
