This uses agentzh chunkin module, which is probably good enough if 
you have no other options, but a) not something officially 
supported and b) known to have limitations (e.g., AFAIR it doesn't 
work with DAV module).

With support for chunked Transfer-Encoding available in 1.3.9+ I 
would recommend using nginx 1.3.x instead.
