That's not supported by libcurl. Unless you set the max redir option that
limits how many redirections it should follow.

The intent has always been that if you need fancy redirect following, you
should rather do it yourself than telling libcurl to do it. This will be a lot
easier to do once 7.18.2 comes out and gets used.

It's not designed to work so even if you may be lucky to be able to change
some options like that, it may also change between versions...
