Consider the following conversation:

    <= :-)

The file which XRootD creates on the storage has the full content, even though it exceeds the Content-Length specified by the client. That's probably since XRootD receives the content in a buffer, and the minimum buffer size exceeds the message contents.

This test was done with XRootD 4.9.0.
