Test case 165 might fail on system which has libidn present, but with an old iconv version (2.1.3 is a known bad version), since it doesn't recognize the charset when named ISO8859-1.

To get HTTP Negotiate authentication to work fine, you need to provide a (fake) user name (this concerns both curl and the lib) because the code wrongly only considers authentication if there's a user name provided.

Doing resumed upload over HTTP does not work with '-C -', because curl doesn't do a HEAD first to get the initial size.

CURLOPT_USERPWD and CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD have no way of providing user names that contain a colon. This can't be fixed easily in a backwards compatible way without adding new options (and then, they should most probably allow setting user name and password separately). -* libcurl ignores empty path parts in FTP URLs, whereas RFC1738 states that +6. libcurl ignores empty path parts in FTP URLs, whereas RFC1738 states that such parts should be sent to the server as 'CWD ' (without an argument). The only exception to this rule, is that we knowingly break this if the empty part is first in the path, as then we use the double slashes to indicate that the user wants to reach the root dir (this exception SHALL remain even when this bug is fixed). -* libcurl doesn't treat the content-length of compressed data properly, as +5. libcurl doesn't treat the content-length of compressed data properly, as it seems HTTP servers send the *uncompressed* length in that header and libcurl thinks of it as the *compressed* length.
