    Description

      The problem was originally observed when using maven 3.0.5 and newer with maven repositories served by nginx that has username/password authentication and connection keep-alive enabled.

      I was able to reproduce the problem using standalone test application that executes the same HttpGet request in a loop. Below is wire log of the last two iterations that lead to "ProtocolException: The server failed to respond with a valid HTTP response". From the log the client apparently stopped processing of the response with Connection:close heaader and then reused the connection for the next request.
