I've just tried it with version curl-7_21_1-172-gedf9566 (according to
git describe --tags) and the results are the same. Also, I tried
specifying the file name using CURLFORM_FILENAME and that also seemed
to be ignored.

I verified with ldd and strace that it is using the newly compiled libcurl:

open("/tmp/curl/lib/libcurl.so.4", O_RDONLY) = 3

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
