I made a small program,

#include <stdio.h>

#include <curl/curl.h>
#include <curl/types.h>
#include <curl/easy.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        CURL *curl;
        CURLcode res;

        curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_DEFAULT);

        curl = curl_easy_init();
        if (curl)
        {
                curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 0);
                curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL,
                        "ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/invalid-file");

                res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

                curl_easy_cleanup(curl);

                fprintf(stderr, "curl told us %d\n", res);
        }

        curl = curl_easy_init();
        if (curl)
        {
                curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 1);
                curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL,
                        "ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/invalid-file");
                /* curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1L); */

                res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

                curl_easy_cleanup(curl);

                fprintf(stderr, "curl told us %d\n", res);
        }

        curl_global_cleanup();

        return 0;
}

And the output is

[ 00:02:38 ] wweng /home/wweng $ ./a.out
curl told us 19
Accept-ranges: bytes
curl told us 0

CURLOPT_NOBODY changed the response code.

Thanks
