Hi,

 Today I downloaded the new wget release (1.8) (I'm a huge fan of the util
btw ;p ) and have been trying out the rate-limit feature.

When I run:

wget --limit-rate=20k 
http://www.planetmirror.com/pub/debian-cd/2.1_r4/i386/binary-i386-1.iso

I get a core dump with the following output

--10:16:54--
http://www.planetmirror.com/pub/debian-cd/2.1_r4/i386/binary-i386-1.iso
           => `binary-i386-1.iso.1'

twist is our web proxy (running squid)


The funny thing is I can snarf the whole intranet using the -m and rate
limit options with no bugs at all. A huge iso though just makes it fall
over.

I'm running FreeBSD 4.1 (which until it hits ports may be a problem).

I can't test a non-proxied linux pc from here to see if the same thing
happens when grabbing an iso.




keep up the good work with wget!
