Hmmm.  I can't remember how the code works exactly, it might end up with a 0 length file, but it doesn't sound right.

I presume its still downloading everything?  I'm not sure here, you may have to try using strace to find out why the file is being written empty, and the only other thing i can think of is hardcore gdb debugging which is too hard to describe in email.
