Apparently HTTP 408 is a thing:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/408
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-6.5.7
I learned of this because I just saw this in some logs from our ppc64 buildlet. I suspect the TCP connection was to Google's GFE to Google Cloud Storage.
Unsolicited response received on idle HTTP channel starting with "HTTP/1.0 408 Request Time-out\r\nCache-Control: no-cache\r\nConnection: close\r\nContent-Type: text/html\r\n\r\n<html><body><h1>408 Request Time-out</h1>\nYour browser didn't send a complete request in time.\n</body></html>\n"; err=<nil>
We should silently ignore those.
