is this something that can be fixed in the lightweight wagon, or is the resolution just "use httpclient"?

does this exhibit in all versions of the JDK?

I haven't tried all JDKs, only on 1.5 so far. I'll try to extract the unit tests I wrote up, and post it here.

IMO, there is very little reason not to decommission the lightweight http wagon...particularly now that the webdav wagon uses httpclient.

Maven ant tasks 2.1.0 still uses wagon-http-lightweight and it looks like it is impacted by this as well as far as I can tell (possibly in combination with http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTTASKS-177).
