* GOPHER transfers seem broken
+* If a HTTP server responds to a HEAD request and includes a body (thus
+ violating the RFC2616), curl won't wait to read the response but just stop
+ reading and return back. If a second request (let's assume a GET) is then
+ immediately made to the same server again, the connection will be re-used
+ fine of course, and the second request will be sent off but when the
+ response is to get read, the previous response-body is what curl will read
+ and havoc is what happens.
+ More details on this is found in this libcurl mailing list thread:
+ http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2002-08/0000.html
