To further clarify things, it seems that at a certain point LWP starts 
to return a 500 error for every link, seemingly regardless of whether
there can be resolved or not. This seems to suggest some internal
state hangs around. I also seem to rememer the 500 errors coming very
quickly, instead of timing out again and again as one would expect.
