Summary: GET data in dns lookup

Initial Comment:
curl doesn't handle GET data when the server part of
the requested
URL isn't terminated by a slash:

Example:

curl 'http://somesite.example.com?parm1=a&parm2=a'

results in:

curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host
'somesite.example.com?parm1=a&parm2=a'

whereas:

curl 'http://somesite.example.com/?parm1=a&parm2=a'

properly results in:

curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host 'somesite.example.com'

This is especially a problem with 302 redirects when
the location header
doesn't contain the slash after the server part of the URL.

Version:
curl 7.10.3 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.10.3
OpenSSL/0.9.7a zlib/1.1.4
According to the changelogs on curl.haxx.se this bug is
not fixed
in newer versions of curl.
