That won't happen because we also check the returned size of peek:
if (bytesRead == 0 || bytesLeft == 0) {
break;
}
so if the file size is < 1024, but m_size is unknown then the entire file the loop will break once it reads the entire file from buffer. I already tested that this works with our trusty README file of 404 bytes from the KDE ftp site.

Oops, indeed! After all that is exactly the difference between "read" and "peek" in the first place. Ah well perhaps I should go back to bed now. Will correct this debacle and post a corrected patch.

That way kio_ftp will work correctly if and when it is put on hold to be reused from another application. Note that the patch uses QIODevice::peek to achieve this goal.
