I added this fix and tested it against a Python HTTP server (which
does not support ranges):
$ cd /tmp
$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer
[in another window ...]
$ http_proxy= ./qemu-io -r http://127.0.0.1:8000/test1.img -c 'read -v 0 512'
CURL: Error opening file: Server not supporting range.
qemu-io: can't open device http://127.0.0.1:8000/test1.img
no file open, try 'help open'
[against another server which does support ranges ...]
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/d/curl/lib/.libs http_proxy= ./qemu-io -r
http://libguestfs.org/index.html -c 'read -v 0 512'
00000000: 3c 21 44 4f 43 54 59 50 45 20 68 74 6d 6c 20 50 ..DOCTYPE.html.P
[etc]
By the way I think it would be better if the error message said
"Server does not support 'range' (byte ranges)."
