RedHat 6.1
>Description:
gnu.gcj.protocol.http.Connection tells the server it's
an HTTP/1.1 client, but it isn't; it doesn't support
chunked Transfer-Encoding (or persistent connections, or
pretty much anything else).  If you talk to an HTTP/1.1
server (e.g., Apache), and it uses the chunked Transfer-
Encoding, you wind up with the chunking data mixed in
with the response content.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile and run the attached Java program, which fetches
a PHP-generated URL (a single line, saying "See?").  The
URL is delivered chunked, and so the program prints out
all the chunking information (plus the headers; I'm getting
ready to put in another bug on that).
>Fix:
I hope to work on full 1.1 support; but, in the meantime,
I recommend changing line 97 of
libjava/gnu/gcj/protocol/http/Connection.java to say
"HTTP/1.0" instead of "HTTP/1.1".
