+ empty binary - i.e. no chunk is sent, but it does
+ not handle a list with an empty binary [&lt;&lt;&gt;&gt;].
+ This will be sent as an empty chunk - which in turn
+ will be encoded by http_chunk to the same as a final
+ chunk, which will make the http client believe that
+ the end of the page is reached.</p>

+ [httpc] If a request times out (not connect timeout), the
