libcurl doesn't wait for anything when Expect: 100-continue isn't used, it
just performs. I guess the added verbose thing makes things go a tad bit
slower than thus more likely to face the situation when the server/proxy
closes the connection before the POST is completed.

Any chance you can add some debug code or something to the Curl_read() and
Curl_write() functoons (in lib/sendf.c)? I would very much like to know what
happens on that level when the connection is "dropped" from the server-side.

I would assume (if this bug wouldn't manifest) that the swrite() call within
Curl_write() returns -1 and that errno (what Curl_ourerrno() returns) contains
ECONNRESET or similar...
