Comment (by tellyworth):

 Quick observation: discover_pingback_server_uri() does a HTTP GET request
 that fetches only the first 2048 bytes of content.  http.php appears (at a
 quick glance) not to provide a way to do that.

 discover_pingback_server_uri() is buggy and ugly and it'd be nice to
 replace it.  Perhaps a new 'max-bytes' arg for WP_Http::request()?
