Hm, I guess "they" are after me :-) Anyway, I tried to explain your
problem. More interestingly, I got at least one answer. It says,
basically, that the fgets() for some reason put a \0 byte into the
string (or nothing at all) and did not return NULL. This explains
that the length of the "string" is 0. The guy further asks for the
output of strace(), ferror() and feof(). I hereby relay this question
to you :-)

Could the problem result from a partially hanging connection?

I am running 2.2.16. I will make the patch that you suggest and have
a look what's happening.
