;; after evaluating the code below, url-retrieve seems started a new
;; process to do the https call, that call should give a bad request with
;; json response {"error":"invalid_client"}
;; but it took a lot of time for the call back to be called
;; I suspect sth special about Xero domain’s certificate which caused
;; this issue.

;; tried starting with emacs option, --no-init
