I think it makes sense to make httplib identical. The changes to httplib have all been intended to make it more robust.
My one worry is that a set of changes I made may have broken pipelined https requests in order to fix a different set of bugs. I had intended to check whether pipelined https requests actually worked in 2.2.1.
Ooh! Delagation! This is now your problem :)
If you (or someone else) don't get to it before 2.2.2's release date, I'll just dump the trunk's version into the branch.
Cheers, M.

Why don't you do that now, so we don't forget that part.

Sure. It seems Jeremy had already backported quite a pile of these fixes back in July.
Cheers, M.
