Yes, it seems to be an accounting error in the code around
`url-http-mark-connection-as-busy' -- that function is called too late,
and marks the connection as busy after we've already exited, and then it
never marks the connection as non-busy...  Hm...

We never get to

http -> Marking connection as free: www.example.com:80 #<process www.example.com<1>>

because we never get the callback.  Hm...
