+Daniel (19 August 2006)
+- Andrew Biggs pointed out a "Expect: 100-continue" flaw where libcurl didn't
+ send the whole request at once, even though the Expect: header was disabled
+ by the application. An effect of this change is also that small (< 1024
+ bytes) POSTs are now always sent without Expect: header since we deem it
+ more costly to bother about that than the risk that we send the data in
+ vain.

+- Fixed a flaw in the "Expect: 100-continue" treatment. If you did two POSTs
on a persistent connection and allowed the first to use that header, you
could not disable it for the second request.
