+ Summary: Verify new catalog URL before redirect
+ 
+ Quoting from an email Mike Heins sent:
+ 
+ Do an LWP fetch of the new catalog URL before just redirecting the user, for it
+ is not confidence-inspiring to see the "/cgi-bin/store: non-existant catalog"
+ message. Better would be to verify that the URL is giving back something besides
+ that before performing the redirect.
