	all tested systems show this behaviour
>Description:
	when downloading a file via http and this file gets send with chunked encoding by the webserver, the chunk messages are saved to the output file. This corrupts the file.
>How-To-Repeat:
	ftp http://www.dataloss.nl/software/patches/qmail-barelfdelay.patch
	md5 sum should be : bcd66117948538a31e17504c2c9e942d
	md5 sum IS        : 4c17905706d043e2187752f8c9d085d6
>Fix:

	work around : do not use FreeBSD's ftp(1) to download files via HTTP.
