Using Perl-5.10.1, libwww-perl-5.834

HTTP::Cookies::Netscape don't read cookies from cookies file with the following header:
# HTTP cookie file.
# Generated by Wget on 2010-03-16 20:01:49.
# Edit at your own risk.

Fixed with changing first line to "# HTTP Cookie File."

Official Netscape cookie file spec page http://www.netscape.com/newsref/std/cookie_spec.html seems  dead, so I don't know if this magic line ever must present.
Maybe just remove magic line checking?
