You are right. It should be something along the lines of

 while (<$s> ne '') {

that is, assuming we can just ignore headers happily.

That code won't work; the value of a blank line will actually be "\n"
(or "\r\n"). So you probably want:

while (<$s>) {
  chomp; chomp;
  last unless $_;
}

or perhaps more readably:

while (<$s>) {
  last if $_ eq "\n" || $_ eq "\r\n";
}
