Summary0007820: Please disable Expect: header in curl
DescriptionUsing CURLOPT_POST with HTTP 1.1 implies the use of a "Expect: 100-continue" header. However this causes problems with some servers. I know they can be considered broken, however fix in client not to send Expect: header seems to fix the issue and does not cause any problems. You can disable this header with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER as usual.

Attached patch allows to disable Expect: headers by setting variable HTTP_NO_EXPECT.

Should this be a default? What is the harm if you always disable headers.

I'm not sure if it should be default, but I think it's safe. I did not notice any problems when using patched version with HTTP_NO_EXPECT enabled agains several CDash installations.
