[Haskell-cafe] Happstack + network package issue on the Mac

[Sean Leather]

We have run into an issue that it seems other people have already found but
has apparently not been resolved, yet. It manifests as with the error "HTTP
request failed with: Unsupported socket". The problem is described in two
places with different workarounds.

  http://code.google.com/p/happstack/issues/detail?id=88
  http://groups.google.com/group/HAppS/msg/0c9a0d0fd7c6aff0

One workaround is to rewrite part of the network package, and the other is
to downgrade the package. It could be the case that the rewrite came from
the older version, though I'm not sure.

I'm curious if it is possible to fix this, either in Happstack or the
network package, once and for all. The workarounds are rather painful when
so many things depend on the network package.

Thanks,
Sean
