Description:
------------
(Apologies if this is a duplicate -- I thought I posted this bug a few
minutes ago, but then couldn't retrieve it to edit it, so I presume it
got lost rather than stored)
I can download the Win binary distribution, but not the source
distribution. I've tried using the latest Opera release and the latest
Firefox release (I don't use IE), tried from multiple mirrors here and
abroad, and tried to trick it in various ways. (This is a problem I've
had with earlier distributions as well.)
The pattern is the same with both browsers: the browser cannot
determine the file size, and 'spins its wheels', allegedly slurping
many MB at a rate far in excess of my ADSL connect's actual bandwidth.
If I let it run to what it thinks is completion, the gzip archive is
unreadable.
Reproduce code:

N/A
