It looks like you intend to send a multipart formpost to the server? If so,
then I think you should instead use curl_formadd() to add sections to the
formpost and let libcurl create the linked list of 'struct curl_httppost'.

Take a look at this example which does this:

... or do you want to pass on the data using some other means? Perhaps just
sending the raw file in the body of the post request?

If you help us specify exactly how you want the data sent I think we can
recommend the correct fix.
