Weird... spent some time debugging my #emacs suddenly errored on `package-refresh-contents`, even with a clean config. Turns out, somehow a slash "/" was inserted into `~/.emacs.d/url/cookies`. This file is evaluated inside `url-retrieve-synchronously`, and the slash tripped the eval.

The only question is, how tf did the slash end up in this file at all? 🤔

@extenebris That's weird. What did the part with the / look like? Did it seem like a possible bit flip or file generation gone wrong?
@zrzz the first symbol in the file. possibly the generation gone (somehow) wrong. It didn't recur (yet) so I have no idea what have gone wrong
