Gisle (and Martijn),

yesterday I finally managed to run lwp-0.03 and I must say, it's an
amazing adventure. Great work, thanks!

But there's a hair in the soup:

Until today it seems to have remained unnoticed that URI::URL 3.02 was
the version that changed the subroutine name C<elem> to C<_elem>.

That broke CGI::Base. One way to fix it is the patch below. The other
would be to change URI::URL back :) Other fixes might exist as well :)

Kind regards,
andreas
