I took a stab at implementing a test for this, but the test harness doesn't
seem to provide a way to allow binary data to be sent or checked. Any
gzip-encoded data suitable for a test seems to require at least 3 NUL bytes
at the very least, and perl seems to choke on that. I could do it if
the file format were extended to support binary data, perhaps by adding
an optional tag element like:

  <data encoding=base64>

to the appropriate sections to specify that the data in the file must be
base64-decoded before being passed to the test script.
