+- bug report #2727981 (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2727981) by Martin
+ Storsjö pointed out how setting CURLOPT_NOBODY to 0 could be downright
+ confusing as it set the method to either GET or HEAD. The example he showed
+ looked like:
+
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_PUT, 1);
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 0);
+
+ The new way doesn't alter the method until the request is about to start. If
+ CURLOPT_NOBODY is then 1 the HTTP request will be HEAD. If CURLOPT_NOBODY is
+ 0 and the request happens to have been set to HEAD, it will then instead be
+ set to GET. I believe this will be less surprising to users, and hopefully
+ not hit any existing users badly.

is found in Redhat's bug tracker:
