I notice the following difference in behavior between curl 7.19.2 and 7.17.1

With curl 7.19.2

#curl -H "Host:att.com" www.att.com
<HTML><HEAD>
<TITLE>Invalid URL</TITLE>
</HEAD><BODY>
<H1>Invalid URL</H1>
The requested URL "/", is invalid.<p>
Reference #9.ab6a5640.1231376406.0
</BODY></HTML>

whereas with curl 7.17.1, the page is retrieved correctly

Is this a bug fix or a bug that got introduced between 7.17.1 and 7.19.2?
Appreciate your help
