    Description

      In ARCArchiveAccess HTTP headers are parsed and put in HttpResponse in the
      process converting between a bytestream and a String with default encoding.
      This might go wrong if the actual HTTP header contains non-ascii characters in a
      different encoding than our default encoding. It is expected but not checked
      that current HTTP headers probably don't contain non-ascii characters.
      It is unknown how you can actually detect the HTTP header encoding. There is a
      field for body-encoding but a quick search didn't reveal how you find out
      about the header-encoding.
      NOTE: This bug is originally from Bugzilla bug_id=760.
      This bug was previously assigned to Unassigned.
