WWOFFLE may not be properly handling keep-alive, APT does not explicly
enable it but it does send a HTTP/1.1 header which the remote end should
understand and turn on keep-alive.
It looks like WWOFFLE is pre-maturely closing the connection and either
not sending the whole file or not allowing the connection to linger.
