Reproducible with Linux guest (remotely over slow Wifi).

NOT reproducible with Windows XP guest over localhost, Apache2 server.

So it seems to have something to do with the long latency and/or low
bandwidth of the slow wifi connection here.

I will add: This bug is not 100% reproducible on every run.  However
it does occur very frequently, probably in 9 out of 10 runs for me.
