Time to move to the new eutils with our DB fetch objects.  I feel the
bridge cracking...

Try this URL
'http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/htbin-post/Entrez/query?db=n&title=no&form=1&term=AF303112&dopt=genbank'

Record is truncated and there is no trailing //

Then try getting it from the normal NCBI channel (accession is AF303112)
or click here:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=nucleotide&list_uids=11127914&dopt=GenBank

Full length record appears.  Heh.

Only notice this b/c our tests are breaking....  Perhaps it is fixed by
the time you get this msg?
