You really need two patches, and you'll get both "included for free" if you
go download the 7.9.5-pre1 archive.

Anyway, the problem with the missing \r\n between the parts is fixed with
this:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/curl/curl/lib/formdata.c.diff?r1=1.30&r2=1.31

And the fact that the global Content-Length: is off with two bytes is fixed
with this patch:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/curl/curl/lib/http.c.diff?r1=1.87&r2=1.88

I hope this helps.
