I guess we should try to support the case where there's no Content-Length parameter.  I don't want to rip and replace streams though, even if it has to read one character at a time. Edit: That is, assuming there actually are any libraries that don't support Content-Length. --- Source file: bitcoin-forum-satoshi-nakamoto.tgz External link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=689.msg7335#msg7335
