usr.bin/ftp fetch.c
Log:
Stop pretending we support full-blown HTTP/1.1 because we are not
ready to handle all its aspects. Failure to deal with HTTP/1.1,
with chunked transfer encoding in particular, led to broken transfers
and data corruption. Fall back to using HTTP/1.0, which is safe.
A point to note: While the "Host:" header had not been in the
original HTTP/1.0 standard, it became a de-facto standard for
HTTP/1.0 as well. It is understood by servers in HTTP/1.0
sessions if supported at all.
This issue doesn't apply to CURRENT since lukemftp handles HTTP/1.1
correctly.
