I'm not sure if it is particularly urgent because of the rarity of
occurrence, but I discovered a bug that causes httplib to hang
indefinitely given some rarely-occurring input in the wild. To
reproduce:
python -c 'import urllib2; urllib2.urlopen("http://
www.hunteros.com").read()'
WARNING: the page was tagged by one of our users and is definitely NSFW.
Again, it seems to occur very rarely, but the behaviour is quite
painful and the fix trivial (see http://bugs.python.org/issue1966).
Thanks,
