Changelog
+Daniel (10 Dec)
+- Moved around more logic:
+
+ First, POST data is never sent as part of the request headers in the http.c
+ code. It is always sent the "normal" read callback then send() way. This now
+ enables a plain HTTP POST to be sent chunked if we want to. This also
+ reduces the risk of having very big POSTs causing problems.
+
+ Further, sending off the initial HTTP request is not done using a loop
+ anymore. If it wasn't all sent off in the first send(), the rest of the
+ request is sent off in the normal transfer select() loop. This makes several
+ things possible, but mainly it makes libcurl block less when used from the
+ multi interface and it also reduces the risk of problems with issuing very
+ large requests.

+- Moved the read callback pointer and data within the structs to a more
+ suitable place. This in preparation for a better HTTP-request sending code
+ without (a silly) loop.
+
+- The Dodds fix seems not to work.
+
+- Vojtech Janota tests proved that the resolve fix from oct 21st is not good
+ enough since obviously older glibcs might return EAGAIN without this meaning
+ that the buffer was too small.
+
+- [the other day] Made libcurl loop on recv() and send() now until done, and
+ then get back to select(). Previously it went back to select() more often
+ which really was a slight overhead. This was due to the reported performance
+ problems on HTTP PUT on Windows. I couldn't see any notable difference on
+ Linux...
