Actually it looks like there is a problem with some later versions.

---request begin---
GET /fedora/releases/16/Fedora/i386/iso/Fedora-16-i386-DVD.iso HTTP/1.1
Range: bytes=-2147483648-
User-Agent: Wget/1.13.1 (mingw32)
Accept: */*
Host: mirrors.kernel.org
Connection: Keep-Alive

---request end---

The 1.11.4 version I have from gnuwin32 looks fine though

---request begin---
GET /fedora/releases/16/Fedora/i386/iso/Fedora-16-i386-DVD.iso HTTP/1.0
Range: bytes=2147483648-
User-Agent: Wget/1.11.4

---request end---


If you want the latest version the maintainer of mypaint compiled Wget/1.13.4 
(mingw32)

go here
http://opensourcepack.blogspot.com/2010/05/wget-112-for-windows.html
click on wget-1.13.4

So it looks there was (and probably still is) a problem with the fstat 
replacement. I don't see anything submitted.
