 With version 1.4.18 a change modified django.views.static.serve at line 65
 for reading the file.
 HttpResponse is called with the iter object, but this can't do anything
 with that.
 From Django 1.5 the CompatibleStreamingHttpResponse is used at this point.

 Reproducible by adding
 {{{
 if settings.DEBUG:
     urlpatterns += patterns('',
         url(r'^media/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve', {
             'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT,
         }),
    )

 }}}
 to the urls.py an call a file in that path.

 The Response status is 200 and the content lenght is transmitted
 correctly.
 In fact, only 0 bytes transferred.

 A possible fix is, to change the line to
 {{{
     response = HttpResponse(''.join(iter(lambda:
 f.read(STREAM_CHUNK_SIZE), '')), mimetype=mimetype)
 }}}
