That's just a bug in urllib in Python 3.0.
What makes you say that's a bug? Did I miss something? (Which is entirely

I saw it in the Python issue tracker. :) Python 3.0 broke handling of
chunked HTTP responses. Instead of interpreting the chunk length prefixes,
it delivered them as part of the response.
