I spent some time debugging it and at this point it does look like a server-side issue. I also tested the x86 version, thinking that there was a chance that the x64 compile may have introduced a bug but it behaves the same. By specifying a multiple of 2000 byte buffer it never asks (so far, at least) for a partial buffer and gets around the problem.
