Forget to mention that the server on other side (from my bug report) is Apache 1.2.0 which is 1.1-conformant and send this 'chunked' output which fetch can't handle (it cause 'connection reset by peer' for it). Since Apache 1.2.x is standard now, fetch will not handle more and more servers in pretty near future. So we need to revert to 1.0 or implement chunked ASAP. I suggest revert to 1.0 right now until somebody will implement chunked. Even if mirroring will be broken by this step (I doubt), normal behaviour remains non-broken, it is more valuable! -- Andrey A. Chernov http://www.nagual.pp.ru/~ache/
