Summary: redirection error

Initial Comment:
I'm trying to developp a micro browser for a larger
project, using libcurl to handle the network related stuff.
i try to access the following url:
http://xxxxxxx/gestSmsgagn/index_audio.php4?CALLEDNUMBER=%220825105010%22&CMPT%5fAI=2&%5f%5fTIMESLOT%5f%5f=30&%5f%5fDTIDEVICE%5f%5f=dtiB1T11
using a GET method. This script redirect to a relative
path; here's the header of the response:

HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2005 11:53:12 GMT

Instead of following the redirection to the url
http://xxxxxxx/gestSmsgagn/sequ_audio/entree.php4 curl
returns an error: "URL using bad/illegal format or
missing URL". The http code is 302 and the effective
uri becomes /sequ_audio/entree.php4 (yes with a slash
at the beginning!).
I know that a redirection must be an absolute url, and
certainly not a relative path, but is this behaviour
something known and not handle or just a bug?

thanks in advance for any response one might give.

We have more than 25 tests cases using Location: without
problems. Can you figure out what makes this special?

Can you provide us with a public URL that responds with a
Location: that causes this problem?

You say libcurl returns error CURLE_URL_MALFORMAT and in the
next sentense you say "the effective uri becomes...". What
do you mean?
