This issue is not about libsoup, but Webkit soup port.

In the problematic case, libsoup does almost correct behavior, except for sends contentSniffCallback even if there is no received HTTP body (the sniffed MIME Type is "inode/directory"). 

The real problem is that Webkit soup port does not check existence of HTTP body and throws it to WebCore unconditionally. WebCore shows, ignores or downloads the HTTP response according to MIME Type.

Because of libsoup's above bug, HTTP response which has not received body but Content-Type field is exist can be delivered to WebCore. Then WebCore tries to download the http response.

To prevent this, Webkit soup port needs to check if received body is exist or not.
