Re: Frontier::Client is going into an infinite loop on reading a long xml, 1.2 Mb

>If you expect such sizes, I suggest you chunk.

But bear in mind that chunking is not legal XML-RPC.  XML-RPC specifies
HTTP and specifies a content-length header, while HTTP specifies that
there is no content-length header in a chunked response.  Nonetheless,
there are many XML-RPC client and server implementations that use a
variation of XML-RPC that recognizes some form of chunking.

Also, I suspect a chunked response wouldn't circumvent this bug, because
the client will surely assemble the chunks into a single virtual memory
buffer anyway, and that buffer may be where the problem is.  Doesn't
Frontier::Client use the standard HTTP package?  I would doubt the latter
can be broken by a large HTTP response.
