Yes it does appear to be a problem. I'll get back to you
Off topic: if serving a static file (especially if you're implementing
a static file server for a web framework) it would be best not to
buffer the entire file in memory as node.fs.cat() does but rather
stream it from the disk to the client using node.fs.read() with
multiple res.sendBody() calls. node.fs.stat() can be used to get the
file size, or you can leave out the "Content-Length" header and node
will used chunked encoding.
