Thanks a lot, I'll try that out tomorrow.

I forgot to mention, this occurs when I'm trying to connect through
FTP. I see that the patch is for http.c; I haven't checked, but the
problem may also exist in other modules of the library.

"curl has different behaviour with and without the --proxytunnel option. Are
you talking about yet another way?"

What I mean is, is it even possible to upload a file via FTP with
libcurl without HTTP tunneling enabled? I never use a proxy, and I'd
just like to know if I should even give my users an option or not.
