CHANGES

  1 multicwd - like today, curl will do a single CWD operation for each path
           part in the given URL. For deep hierarchies this means very many
           commands. This is how RFC1738 says it should be done. This is the
           default.

  2 nocwd - no CWD at all is done, curl will do SIZE, RETR, STOR etc and give
           a full path to the server.

  3 singlecwd - make one CWD with the full target directory and then operate
            on the file "normally".

  (With the command line tool you do --ftp-method [METHOD], where [METHOD] is
  one of "multicwd", "nocwd" or "singlecwd".)

  What feedback I'm interested in:

  1 - Do they work at all? Do you find servers where one of these don't work?

  2 - What would proper names for the option and its arguments be, if we
      consider this feature good enough to get included and documented in
      upcoming releases?

  3 - Should we make libcurl able to "walk through" these options in case of
      (path related) failures, or should it fail and let the user redo any
      possible retries?

  (This option is not documented in any man page just yet since I'm not sure
  these names will be used or if the functionality will end up exactly like
  this.  And for the same reasons we have no test cases for these yet.)

- When using a bad path over FTP, as in when libcurl couldn't CWD into all
  given subdirs, libcurl would still "remember" the full path as if it is the
  current directory libcurl is in so that the next curl_easy_perform() would
  get really confused if it tried the same path again - as it would not issue
  any CWD commands at all, assuming it is already in the "proper" dir.

  Starting now, a failed CWD command sets a flag that prevents the path to be
  "remembered" after returning.

- Michael Jahn fixed so that the second CONNECT when doing FTP over a HTTP
  proxy actually used a new connection and not sent the second request on the
  first socket!

- Alexander Lazic made the buildconf run the buildconf in the ares dir if that
  is present instead of trying to mimic that script in curl's buildconf
  script.

- Andres Garcia made the TFTP test server build with mingw.
