Hi Eric,

In which routine is this happening?  Is this happening in ssl_recvdoc() or
ssl_recvchunk()?

The problem that Ian Patterson reported was in ssl_recvchunk().  We've
found that problem and are working on a fix.  (Actually, I wrote the fix a
while ago, but he hasn't completely tested it yet since his clients'
servers have been down)

So, I guess I'm trying to determine if you are having the same problem, or
if this is something different.

Can you show me where you've inserted the 5 seconds?  I don't know which
part of the code you're having problems with?

a GSK_ERROR_IO is error that should not be ignored.  It means something
went wrong at a lower level.   When this happens, HTTPAPIR4 should be
calling the ssl_error() routine, which in turn should be looking up
the value of errno.  Can you tell me what the value of errno is when
this happens?   Is it, by chance, 3406?

Your message tells me that you want me to look at the code more closely,
but you didn't say which code I should be looking at! :)
