-"""Reproduce SCGI content-type auto-detection bug in rtorrent.
-
-Sends a JSON SCGI request without Content-Type header, splitting the
-TCP stream so that the header arrives before the body.  If the server
-peeks at the body start (m_buffer[m_body]) before the body has arrived,
-it reads a null byte instead of '{' and defaults to XML — causing the
-JSON-RPC call to fail.
-
-Usage:
-    python3 repro-scgi-content-type.py host:port
-    python3 repro-scgi-content-type.py 127.0.0.1:5101
