Right. Since I posted I compared scripts in BBEdit (BTW under "search" menu they have "compare two front documents" feature, works really well)

There are 32 changes between 1.1.6 and 1.2.0, mostly bug fixes, some of fixes below.

# I.M 2010.03.24  with engine versions < 4.5 calling hostnametoaddress with an extra parameter will throw an error, so encase in a try ... catch block and call without callback handler
# I.M. 2010-03-11  Need to check result and handle immediate failure where no callback message will be sent

# OK-2009-03-25 : Bug 7837 - Error code 624 means user interrupt. In this case we unblock and exit to top,
# to allow users to abort loops containing locking url accesses.
--
# MW-2011-04-23: [[ Bug 9520 ]] HTTP headers don't necessarily have a space after the ':'.
--
# OK-2008-09-19 : fixed unquoted literal
--
# MW-2010-10-12: [[ Bug 8655 ]] Applying patch suggested in bug report. 
--
# OK-2008-09-19 : Added for revOnline to allow post commands to be cancelled.  not sure if this works yet...

Also, httpHeaders parsing  improved, HostNameToAddressCallback improved, some changes in HTTPs
