If the Http session is closed in HttpConduit, the mainActor will be stopped, but the outstanding futures waiting to be completed still have a reference to the stopped actor. When the futures complete an exception is raised in the actor thread, and printed to standard error.
val conduit = new HttpConduit("github.com")
conduit.sendReceive(HttpRequest())
conduit.close()
// Prints akka.actor not started error to standard error
The test case is in HttpConduitSpec:handleClose
