Investigation shows that the problem occurs when url-http-data is 
multibyte and (length url-http-data) differs from (length 
(string-as-unibyte url-http-data)), because we send a wrong value in 
Content-length.

Changing url-http-create-request like this will make the problem more 
obvious for anyone else that hits it, patch attached.

Stefan, did you have a particular situation in mind where this might be 
bad, when you wrote the FIXME?
