  One section of TCPSlaveBase is incomplete.  It's small, but still.  This 
section handles some logic for frames since https needs to work a bit 
differently there.  It will also need a couple of minor updates in 
khtml_part. I should be able to do this code before the end of the weekend.  
It doesn't matter if your patch goes in before or after 2.2 because this code 
just won't be used if the kio_http patch doesn't go in.
