What about the line immediately before that line? It says:

    if((expectsend == -1) || (expectsend > bytessent)) {

What are the contents of the variables expectsend and bytessent in this case?

Ah, you haven't set a postfieldsize. Did you try simply changing your app to
do that?

Other than that, I figure we should change the conditionals there to make it
_always_ do the rewind if expectsend is -1.

Do you have the rewind callback setup?
