 I am using a WP plugin called "amr event lists with ical files" to display
 an event list from a google calendar. The plugin uses wp_remote_get to get
 the calendars ics data. Under some circumstances the return value of
 wp_remote_get lacks the first line of the calendar ("BEGIN:VCALENDAR").
 The plugins author and I tried to figure out in what circumstances this
 happens, but without success.
 There is an example URL showing the described effect used in my WP page:
 https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/ldncnjg2a0tjv7f36p4kri9eqg%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

 Getting this URL with wget or curl results in consistent calendar data,
 getting it via wp_remote_get the first line is missing. This happens since
 WP 4.6, no problem in earlier versions.
