Summary: curl will reuse old Content-Length if none received

Initial Comment:
curl 7.21.7

When an easy handle is used to download an URI which has no Content-Length header (or equivalent) after downloading an URI which does, the value from the previous transfer is reused and returned by CURLINFO_CONTENT_LENGTH_DOWNLOAD. This is because the progress flags (used to determine whether such a header was received) are not reset between transfers. The quick fix I used is attached.
