I have just run a simple test using the latest 4.1.x branch from CVS and I do not see this bug - the data is displayed as expected. This was with tomcat standalone running on port 8080.
There are two explanations for this: 1. There is a bug in 4.1.30 that has been fixed in CVS 2. There is something in your setup (maybe a filter?) that is messing with the input stream Either way, the current TC4 (and TC5 from previous posts) code bases are both OK.
