On 2004-07-23, I reported a couple of problems with the "wget -N"
command.

I've just run into what is probably a closely related problem.

I'm using wget 1.9.1 under SPARC/SunOS 5.8.

The URL I'm having problems with is
    <http://pki1.doegrids.org/CRL/1c3f2ca8.r0>

If I try
    wget -N <URL>
it works.  If I try
    wget -N -O <filename> <URL>
it fails *if* the specified filename is the same as the actual name
of the downloaded file; otherwise, it succeeds.

In each case, the file doesn't exist before the "wget" command.

See <http://users.sdsc.edu/~kst/wget-bug/> for a script and log file
that exhibit the problem.

We must do something.  This is something.  Therefore, we must do this.
