[New-bugs-announce] [issue2243] urllib2. strange behavior for getting chuncked transfer-ecnoded data

[begemoth]

New submission from begemoth:

Through urllib2 open web pages from some sites (www.rbc.ru, www.rambler.ru, www.yandex.ru). Their servers send data in chuncked transfer-encoding. httplib (which is used by urllib2) "unchunk" data but I recieve "transfer-encoding: chuncked" in response header nevertheless. It seems to me that this key in header need to be removed from the header if httplib "unchuncked" the data.
