[Bug-wget] [bug #50579] wget --continue: Download fails when server does

From: Dale Worley
Subject: [Bug-wget] [bug #50579] wget --continue: Download fails when server does not support HEAD request

User-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:34.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/34.0 
Follow-up Comment #2, bug #50579 (project wget):

RFC 2616 section 9.4 says that an HTTP server should return the same headers
for a HEAD request as it does for a GET of the same URL.  So I see nothing
incorrect with wget relying on that behavior.
