But, whether or not it raises the exception depends what I link it with, which is the essential problem.

I'm using the Http_client.Convenience module to get web pages.

Unfortunately, if I link the Unix module into my program, then suddenly

I get the Unix_error exception with code EINPROGRESS (38).

I don't see this with a trivial program that just does http_get:

    open Http_client.Convenience

    let () = print_string (http_get Sys.argv.(1))

The EINPROGRESS is from a connect() call on a socket that's been set

non-blocking.  Running the above program under strace shows that this

occurs, but it's handled within http_get.

Can you post a minimal example that shows the exception escaping?
