Hi Lars,

No need for the flag, we can simply check whether or not the buffer is NULL.  
Infact it should not even for check the response code when sending POST data.  
Thanks I will fix that.

However, I am mystified by the debug output.  From the debug statement you 
posted it looks to me like the server is crapping right before it can respond 
to the request put forth. That should definitely not happen unless the data 
we send is for some reason corrupted (highly unlikely since your patch simply 
makes kio_http repost the data) or the connection for some reason was broken. 
Did you have a bad connection to the remote machine ?  I was just curious as 
to what the cause could be :)  It is not at all evident from the debug 
statement.  

Regards,
Dawit A.
