+Quoting http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt , section 10.3.2:
+
+   If the 302 status code is received in response to a request other
+   than GET or HEAD, the user agent MUST NOT automatically redirect the
+   request unless it can be confirmed by the user, since this might
+   change the conditions under which the request was issued.
+
+I will close the bug by now, but if you have a test case that works
+under MS runtime, feel free to attach it to the report and reopen it.
+
+Thanks.
