No, I did not write it - it is a LGPL class  which I found in another 
project.
see http://www.innovation.ch/java/HTTPClient/  or also the header in 
the file.
I will try to have a look at this problem, but not sure if I can fix it 
quickly.

PDB data is still available for download as .Z files, e.g. 
ftp://ftp.rcsb.org/pub/pdb/data/structures/divided/pdb/ar/
that's why I would need to have some tools for reading these.

I agree this is a general problem and the solution does not necessarily 
have to be part of BioJava.
I don;t think any patent got infringed, since the file got committed 
after they had expired.
