While I already committed a fix to SVN, I just wanted to comment that I do not
consider wget a must-have utility for many years now. That is because many apps
already require the curl library, and thus just using curl instead wget saves
you precious space (on older PCs, embedded boards), ... curl outputs directly
to the standard output stream, so one only needs to remember to add -O to save
the original filename:
curl -O <url>
You could alias wget to "curl -O" :-)
