One more thing: (it's a while ago I pulled wireshark on this problem, so
excuse me if my memory is off; and I may be inferring things incorrectly)
it did seem to be something with the order / timing of http packets, e.g.
both webkit browsers on windows (Safari, Chrome) I remember showing the same
problem;  once they both repeatedly cut at the same place;  firefox at a
different size (but also incomplete);  Opera worked then.... but wget or
curl _always_ worked for me....
