* libcurl doesn't treat the content-length of compressed data properly, as
it seems HTTP servers send the *uncompressed* length in that header and
libcurl thinks of it as the *compressed* lenght. Some explanations are here:
http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2003-06/0146.html
* Downloading 0 (zero) bytes files over FTP will not create a zero byte file
locally, which is because libcurl doesn't call the write callback with zero
bytes. Explained here: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2003-04/0143.html
* Using CURLOPT_FAILONERROR (-f/--fail) will make authentication to stop
working if you use anything but plain Basic auth.
