Comment(by ganesh):
dmwit gave me a helpful tip - even though it doesn't actually go wrong on
all platforms, it does loop for quite a while before it escapes. So
putting in a print statement allows one to observe it on Linux.
I've now applied a patch based on his (I chose to add a new class member
rather than pushing a flag around everywhere). You can get a copy from
git://github.com/haskell/HTTP.git or https://github.com/haskell/HTTP
Please could all the people who had problems test this out before I
release it?
