 Thanks for the report. According to the RFC 1945 (which defines HTTP/1.0
 HTTP) and RFC 2616 (which defines HTTP/1.1) request looks as follows:
 
 [...]
 5 Request
 
    A request message from a client to a server includes, within the
    first line of that message, the method to be applied to the resource,
    the identifier of the resource, and the protocol version in use.
 
         Request       = Request-Line              ; Section 5.1
                         *(( general-header        ; Section 4.5
                          | request-header         ; Section 5.3
                          | entity-header ) CRLF)  ; Section 7.1
                         CRLF
                         [ message-body ]          ; Section 4.3
 [...]
 
 The code waits for headers after you sent "GET / HTTP/1.0", that's why
 you get 408 (timeout). To complete the request, you should send
 additional empty line. (It should be "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n").
