Subject: problem with Net::HTTP in 1.8.1

Hello,

The following code seems to cause an infinite loop:

  #!/usr/bin/ruby -w
  
  require 'net/http'
  
  http = Net::HTTP.start('www.google.com', 80)
  
  response = http.get('/')
  puts response.header


This causes the following bogus message to be printed indefinitely:

net/http.rb: warning: Net::HTTP v1.1 style assignment found at ./foo:8:in `puts'; use `response = http.get(...)' instead.

Something seems amiss with #header.

Also, there's a typo in https.rb:

[ianmacd@jiskefet]$ grep -n alrady /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/https.rb
158:        raise ProtocolError, "connection is alrady set up"
                                                ^^^^^^
[ianmacd@jiskefet]$ ruby -v
ruby 1.8.1 (2004-03-01) [i686-linux-gnu]
