Also, I am not familiar with the backward-comparability requirements of py3k, but orsenthil's patch will break py3k code that relies on data being a string, shouldn't this be mentioned somewhere?
Finally, I do not understand why my proposed change, which is to add
+ if not data:
+ request.add_unredirected_header('Content-length', '0')
so that code that relies on being able to pass a blank string as data (for instance, the code in test_urllib2.py) is still able to do so.
