                                  Changelog

Daniel (1 December 2006)

- Toon Verwaest reported that there are servers that send the Content-Range:

  header in a third, not suppported by libcurl, format and we agreed that we

  could make the parser more forgiving to accept all the three found

  variations.

Daniel (25 November 2006)

- Venkat Akella found out that libcurl did not like HTTP responses that simply

  responded with a single status line and no headers nor body. Starting now, a

 o stack overwrite on 64bit Windows in the chunked decoding department

 o HTTP responses on persistent connections without Content-Length nor chunked

   encoding are now considered to be without response body

 o Content-Range: header parsing improved

              /* Content-Range: bytes [num]-

                 Content-Range: bytes: [num]-

                 Content-Range: [num]-

                 The second format was added since Sun's webserver

                 JavaWebServer/1.1.1 obviously sends the header this way!

                 The third added since some servers use that!
