While investigating
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=395009 (which is a
wierd bug...) I noticed that pages received via wwwoffle were larger
than directly received pages. Wwwoffle is adding spaces before />
strings.

To demonstrate:

# echo "<bla />"|wwwoffle-write --addheader http://foo.bar/bla

# wwwoffle-read http://foo.bar/bla | cat -vet
HTTP/1.0 200 OK^M$
Content-Type: text/html^M$
^M$
<bla />$

# http_proxy=http://localhost:8080/ GET http://foo.bar/bla | cat -vet
<bla  />$


Now this shouldn't be a problem for properly written browsers (I've
checked that it doesn't happen with e.g. text/plain content), but I
suspect an off-by-one error somewhere...
