If you also capture the network stream I'm sure you'll see why.

That's the error code known as CHUNKE_BAD_CHUNK in lib/http_chunks.c. If you
check that code, you see there are only a few places where that error can be
returned. It seems to only be returned for cases where there wasn't a CR or LF
byte when one was expected.
