I've sent a testcase last week, did it get lost?
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2013-01/att-0341/curltest.c

It should be fairly self-contained, just edit it and set CURLMOPT_PIPELINING to 1L to see it fail, and to 0L to see it work.

Here it is attached again, let me know if the testcase doesn't reproduce the problem for you, or if you need additional info.

Usage:
$ gcc curltest.c -lcurl -o curltest
$ ./curltest
...
OK: 1, Failed: 7
