guile-www 1.1.1ttn3 available

the http 1.1 spec (rfc 2616) is 176 pages; it will be a while before
guile-www http implementation gets there...  however, for now, we have a
new proc to play with: http:post-form.  example usage:

  (http:post-form (url:parse "http://www.biomail.org")
                  (list "User-Agent: biomail2ris/1.0")
                  '((uid . 2342433)
                    (uid . 8193)
                    (submit . "Medline format")
                    (user . "jrandom")
                    (mail . "[email protected]")
                    (subj . "integrin AND rap1")
                    (lang . "")))

first arg is a url object.  second arg is a list of additional headers
("Content-Type" and "Host" are set automatically).  third arg is a list
of key-value pairs, to be rendered as "~A=~A", concatenated with "&",
and urlencoded in the body of an http request.  thanks go to w3m folks
for a convenient #ifdef HTTP_DEBUG in url.c.  tarball in:
