First of all: thank your for the fast response!

I definitely agree that a quick-fix might break existing libcurl
applications. In the long run I guess libcurl should start to support
empty headers at some point.

The best approach I have so far is to supply a header with an empty
value enclosed in double quotes:
EmptyHeader: ""
This header should be RFC conform and supposedly fulfills the
requirement of an empty header.
Any thoughts or suggestions about this approach? It works with libcurl.
