Hi, and thanks for your contribution!

However, libcurl already supports cookies fine in HTTP if you only enable the
cookie engine _first_. Your patch only removes that restriction and makes
libcurl automatically enable on all incoming cookies and I don't think that's
a good idea.

You should be able to get your app to work with an unmodified libcurl by using
CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE or similar.
