Comment (by Pete):

 Replying to [comment:8 pulkomandy]:

 maybe it handles it only when showing a page and not when downloading.
 Well, it ''says'' it supports it...
 A quick check with ' nc -lv -p 80' (on my Raspberry Pi, actually) shows
 this request string for a 'tar.gz' file:


 {{{
 GET /matt-1.4.tar.gz HTTP/1.1
 Host: pi
 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (BeOS; U; BeOS BePC; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3)
 Gecko/20070313 BonEcho/2.0.0.3
 Accept:
 
text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5
 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5
 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate
 Accept-Charset: UTF-8,*
 Keep-Alive: 300
 Connection: keep-alive

 }}}
 (That's from my BeOS machine, as it's the one I happen to be on, but both
 that and Haiku download the fourmilab file as an unexpanded gzip.)
