Which is perfectly fine for latex, ... but for a tool that is not able

So how should we solve this?
If we _require_ url.sty to be present we can just use
\usepackage{url}, but if we don't require it...hmm
can you try this:
\IfFileExists{url.sty}{%
\usepackage{url}%
}{%
\newcommand{url}{\texttt}%
}
and see if that makes a difference for latex2html?

No, and to have that would be a "hackish" solution, but I think we
eventually will be able to create a fix for this problem.
