I've attached preliminary patches to fix the Content-Type header parser,
and also to fix the parsing of response header lines to support
continuation lines.
With these patches applied, I'm able to fetch and decode the SOAP
response that you fetched with your 'wget' example, as follows:

Note that I needed to make two other changes to your preliminary code,
namely:
* I passed "#:streaming? #t" to 'http-post', to ask for a port to read
the response body instead of reading it eagerly.
* I explicitly set the port encoding to "UTF-8" on that port before
using 'xml->sxml' to read it.
Otherwise, the entire 'body' response will be returned as a bytevector,
because the response Content-Type is not recognized as a textual type.
The HTTP Content-Type is "multipart/related", with a parameter:
type="text/xml". I'm not sure if we should be automatically
interpreting that as a textual type or not.
There's no 'charset' parameter in the Content-Type header, but the XML
internally specifies: encoding="UTF-8".
Anyway, here are the preliminary patches.

* module/web/http.scm (spaces-and-tabs, space-or-tab?): New variables.
(read-header-line): After reading a header, if a space or tab follows,
then read the continuation lines and append them all together.
