Is anybody using SimpleHTTPServer? It contains a special case for text
files, that makes it open them in another way as other files. This
causes the reported content-length to be unequal to the actual length
of the request response data (which isn't correct, obviously).
This trivial patch removes the special case from SimpleHTTPServer.
Please review and/or make a vote for this patch; the current
SimpleHTTPServer is unusable for text files...
