+The test is flawed, it doesn't return a valid HTTP response. 
+
+The returned payload have no headers, in that case the client uses
+connection close to determine the body length. This is what RFC 2616
+says in chap 4.4
+
+This example works if the Socket is closed after sending the payload,
+or if the Content-Length header is sent.
