New submission from Nikolaus Rath:

The handle_expect_100() implementation in BaseHTTPRequestHandler currently 
calls send_response_only(100) followed by flush_headers(). However, even a 1xx 
response is always followed by a (potentially empty) set of response headers 
(cf. http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-9.9). Therefore, clients will 
block waiting for an additional '\r\n' before sending the buffer.

The attached patch fixes the problem.
