Bug Description

As of zsync 0.6.2-7, using the `-i` option will result in a failure to download the file. Example:

$ zsync http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-live/current/plucky-live-server-amd64.iso.zsync -i ~/plucky-live-server-amd64.iso
#################### 100.0% 1.23 MBps DONE
reading seed file /home/dbungert/plucky-live-server-amd64.iso:
<many asterisks>
Read /home/dbungert/plucky-live-server-amd64.iso. Target 95.6% complete.
downloading from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-live/current/plucky-live-server-amd64.iso:
#################### 100.0% DONE
failed to retrieve from plucky-live-server-amd64.iso
Aborting, download available in plucky-live-server-amd64.iso.part

A revert to 0.6.2-6 resolves the problem.
