Ok. Was a bit afraid of that. As I said the patch is designed for a
slightly different problem. The patch tries to work around 100 Continue
by not advertising support for it, but...

The sites should not fail like this with the current patch I think, but
there is many servers doing things they should not and getting away with
it normally..

If the site works fine without the patch then it's possible to modify
the patch slightly to make sure what worked before continues working. In
http.c change

    memBufPrintf(mb, "%s %s HTTP/1.1\r\n",

back into the original

    memBufPrintf(mb, "%s %s HTTP/1.0\r\n",

and sites which did work before applying the patch should continue
working.

Regards
Henrik
