The problem is that at times curl already managed to send off a hole bunch of
data when it gets redirected and it has to send that data *again*. It does its
best to avoid that, but sometimes it can't be helped!
If you can rewind then you're toast. But note that rewinding can also mean
closing the entire thing and opening it from the beginning again, if that is
easier.
If none of those options are available to you, then I think you should up the
efforts of not having to send the data twice. For example check Expect:
100-continue status or if you can us the target URL directly etc.
