I'd try the following construct to see if it would keep your compiler happy:

    String      url = "http://";
    if (ssl) url = "https://";

This seems to be a compiler bug to me, as there shouldn't be a difference
in the type of a single string literal or a ternary operator with two
string literals as result.  We have had reports before of some C++
compilers choking on ternary operators, though, so we have tried to use
them sparingly.
