--- Comment #4 from Hans Leidekker hans@meelstraat.net 2012-01-27 03:43:51 CST --- HEAD is basically unimplemented.
The first bug is that we turn any request into a GET request when redirecting, where it should only be done for POST requests.
The second bug is that we're not closing the connection when there's nothing to read.
The third bug is that we attempt to read data after receiving a response to a HEAD request.
I have patches for all of these.
