-------------------------------------------
this seems to affect also 1.461

> Grab the war (just verified again with 1.460) and run with 'java -jar
> jenkins.war'. Then send a HEAD request and observe that the server returns a
> body (this is best done by using 'telnet localhost 8080' and sending 'HEAD /
> HTTP/1.0' - tools like curl and lwp-request will suppress any received body).
> This specifically causes issues with the Eclipse Mylyn plugin as that sends a
> HEAD request followed by a GET - because the connection is kept alive between
> the two requests, the parsing of the second response fails since it tries to
> parse the body from the HEAD as the http response headers of the GET.
> Note that running Jenkins in Tomcat does not have this issue.
