[BusyBox] [PATCH] Small HTTP/1.1 Support

[Laurence Anderson]

Hi everyone, I've just finished a patch to wget (CVS Revision 1.31) to 
allow full HTTP/1.1 compatibility, adding just 288 bytes to the executable.

Added:
* HTTP/1.1 100 Continue support
* Chunked content encoding
and wget already supported connection: close and host: headers.

This patch only affects chunked transfers (ie. ones that didn't work 
before), so it shouldn't break anything else, but I've tested it with 
chunked and continue responses, and it worked fine.

Looking at the RFC: ..and MUST ignore chunk-extension extensions they do 
not understand. Anybody explain? Write a patch?

Could this patch be put into CVS, as many sites are vhosted and HTTP/1.1 is 
currently disabled?

Laurence
