[svn] Dan Berger responded to my email. Added his explanation of what his patch was

coded for (downloading StarOffice from Sun's website).  He says he doesn't use
wget any more, so he won't be writing a patch that allows downloading that
without breaking anything (such a patch would apparently involve stopping
certain characters in the URL from being escaped).

I'm not sure what Dan had in mind with this patch (no explanatory
comments), but I'm removing it for now. If he can rewrite it so
it doesn't break stuff, okay.

Backing out the patch, which Dan B. informed me by email was just
a kludge to download StarOffice from Sun made necessary due to
wget's unconditional escaping of certain characters (room for an
option there?).
