This is obviously very strange.  Can you provide your version of LWP/ 
libwww-perl?
We aught to consider switching to a libcurl-based HTTP package -  
since that's what we use in C-land.  Don't know if such a beast exists.

We have a HOWTO section on our web-site for user-contributed docs.   
Would that fit in there?  Or we can simply link to yours from there  
if you'd rather.
The web-site is also on CVS (OME-WEBSITE), and we would heartily  
welcome a patch against that as well if you want to write up an  
ubuntu section (or anything else!).

Thanks for your efforts in tracking down the source of this bug!
We should start a bug here for it, since it looks like its affecting  
several people:
