Fixed in r81687, r81688, r81689 and r81690.

Yes, I see that before the original change was made any chuncked encoding went through _read_chunked which close the resp before returning. So, here for HEAD, the resp is closed thus fixing the problem mentioned by djc.

priority: release blocker -> 
resolution: accepted -> fixed
