You *can* actually use CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE or CURLINFO_HTTP_CONNECTCODE as
soon as libcurl has received those status lines (and thus parsed and stored
the number).

I think we should update the docs to make it clear that these two informations
will be available as soon as libcurl has parsed them. Before that, they will
return zero.
