I was getting different Content-Lengths on different runs of the
test.  I don't know why.  Here the Content-Length is of the gzip'd
request, it shouldn't be varying with each run, but it seemed to be.

That's a really good point.  This is just stupid, I started with
the two egreps to filter the lines, then found I needed to strip
CRs, and then had to munge the Content-Length, and I just forgot
to merge the egrep cases into the sed script.

I'll fix this.  Thanks.
