So I've been trying to do http-requesting with DRAKMA and I see some weird results:

(drakma:http-request "http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser? Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch- adv.htm&r=80&f=G&l=50&d=PTXT&s1=affymetrix&p=2&OS=affymetrix&RS=affymetr ix")

Seems Paul Graham's Arc server is not the only one which sends wrong line endings. Luckily, Chunga was modified to cope with that just two days ago... :)
