+* libcurl doesn't treat the content-length of compressed data properly, as
+ it seems HTTP servers send the *uncompressed* length in that header and
+ libcurl thinks of it as the *compressed* lenght. Some explanations are here:

+ locally, which is because libcurl doesn't call the write callback with zero
+ bytes. Explained here: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2003-04/0143.html
