I've heared others describe similar problems before. This is not a curl
problem (curl as in libcurl and the stuff I've written) but a problem in the
PHP module named curl. It seems as if the glue layer is also converting input
data.

libcurl does not convert any data this way, it posts whatever you pass to it
and return whatever the server returned. libcurl doesn't care one bit for
charsets or similar.

It would be really good if someone could dig a little in the curl modules
source code to see how the input post strings are treated...
