    Attachment: patch.txt

If I'm not mistaken, the old email thread this issue was being discussed on was initiated by me. I continued to pursue the issue at that time, but got no reply to my last one or two messages. Now I've made a patch which fixes this problem since I ran into it again.

> When doing some testing using the ws-xmlrpc client libraries I ran across a bug in its calculation of the content-length HTTP header when using gzip compression but not HTTP chunked transfer. The client incorrectly sets the content-length to the length of the uncompressed data, rather than the compressed data it sends. This happens using both 3.0 and 3.1 client libraries.
> I see some activity on ws-xmlrpc-dev from September 2007 but no mention of any resolution. I did a quick bug search and found nothing - my apologies if this is already being tracked somewhere else and I missed it.
> From the mail thread, a link to the relevant part of the HTTP spec:
> http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.13
