[issue17569] urllib2 urlopen truncates https pages after 32768 characters

[J Porter]

New submission from J Porter:

When using urllib2 to fetch page data from an https server, I found that only the first 32768 characters of the download were retrieved. Other browsers returned the full documents, so it does not appear to be a server issue. If http, rather than https is used on the same server, the full document is retrieved. No problems with shorter documents (<32768 characters). They were not truncated.
