Thanks for a very accurate description and to the point explanation what goes
wrong and why.

The code was a bit confused when dealing with multiple POST/PUT/GET/custom
requests and I realize now that it wasn't even complete (you can't reliably
tell libcurl to get back to a regular GET operation).

I've solved this now. I cleared up the HTTP request dealing code and I added
a new setopt option (CURLOPT_HTTPGET) that can set the request back to GET
(which is the default startup HTTP request).

I would be very interested in getting feedback on this patch.

This fix is committed to CVS.
