It seems that you are using an egg from CHICKEN version 3, which is
pretty old and not maintained anymore. The /eggref/3 part in the URL
indicates that it is a CHICKEN 3 egg.
The current major version is 4. You can get it from
http://code.call-cc.org
Check http://wiki.call-cc.org/eggref/4/http-client for the http-client
for version 4 of CHICKEN.
You can install it with:
$ chicken-install http-client
`chicken-install' is the egg management tool for version 4. If you have
`chicken-setup', you have a CHICKEN version 3.
I hope that helps.
Best wishes.
Mario
