Summary: --max-redirs 0 is ignored

Initial Comment:
I would expect

curl --location --max-redirs 0 http://$url_that_redirects

to make curl return an error (47) if the url is redirected.
Instead it follows the redirect (even multiple ones).

I have attached a patch which fixes this. I am not certain
if this is the right way - but it seems to work for my
simple testcases.

Hmmm - sourceforge tells me to fill in my name and
email, but there are no fields for it. Guess here will do:

I used to play a lot of games using play money at <a href=&#039;http://www.golden-casino.spb.ru&#039;>Golden Casino</a>. But I don&#039;t learn a lot from playing because maniacs will call all in on every hand. I don&#039;t get to improve my games that much when I play with pratise money in games. As a matter of fact, I&#039;m not even enjoying myself when I play games with manics using practise money.

When I actually move to a real money game, I found the games to be more enjoyable, as I am playing against much more better players and I am slowly improving on my game.

Thanks, I did the fix slightly different and have committed
it to CVS just now!

I want curl to return an error if the url is redirected, rather than
output the response. This is for use as part of a larger script.

BTW: I have a suspicion that my patch will change standard
libcurl behavior (when no options are set), but do not have an
easy way to test it.

Out of curiosity, why are you using --location if you don't
want it to follow _any_ Location:?
