R-devel r69197 returns appropriate errors for the cases below; I know of a few
rough edges
- ftp error codes are not reported correctly
- download.file creates destfile before discovering that http fails, leaving an
empty file on disk
and am happy to hear of more.

Thanks for looking into this so promptly!
Should users expect the behaviour to be congruent across all of the
supported external programs (curl, wget) as well? E.g.
URL - http://cran.rstudio.org/no/such/file/here.tar.gz;
download - function(file, method, ...)

Hi Martin,
Indeed it does (and I should have confirmed myself with R-patched and
R-devel before posting...)
Thanks, and sorry for the noise.

As kindly pointed out by Martin off-list, I was in fact using an old
version of R-devel (it looks like the binaries provided at
