[issue7540] urllib2 request does not update content length after new add_data

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

Fred, I think your report of observed breakage is sufficient to warrant rolling back the change, especially since this isn't an actual bug fix.  That is, no code that was failing to work before would be enabled to work by this fix.  (Rather, it aims to prevent broken code from being written...which it could be argued is inappropriate for a backport anyway, though you could argue it either way.)
