Details

Description:
nc binary provided by openbsd-netcat doesn't work, i.e. HTTP request result isn't displayed at all.

Additional info:
* package version(s): 1.130_1-1
* config and/or log files etc.

Steps to reproduce:
Install openbsd-netcat package
Make simple http request using nc

$ printf 'GET / HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: www.archlinux.org\r\nUser-Agent: wget\r\n\r\n' | nc www.archlinux.org 80

Expected result: nc displays HTTP response

HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
Server: nginx/1.10.3
Date: Fri, 21 Apr 2017 13:31:09 GMT
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 185
Connection: close
Location: https://www.archlinux.org/

<body bgcolor="white">
<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx/1.10.3</center>
</body>
</html>

Actual result: nc doesn't display HTTP response at all.

Hint: busybox's nc applet, nc from gnu-netcat, and nmap's ncat command work fine. Only nc from openbsd-netcat is broken.

This task depends upon
