Description of Problem:
When using the UploadData method of WebCLient and choosing DELETE as the method
we get an exception (ProtocolViolationException).

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. public static string RetrieveMessage(WebClient webClient, string
authHeaderValue)
        {
            webClient.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.Authorization] =
authHeaderValue;
            return
Encoding.UTF8.GetString(webClient.UploadData("messages/head?timeout=20",
"DELETE", new byte[0]));
        } 


Actual Results:
Exception.

Expected Results:
UploadData should support DELETE as NETFX does.

How often does this happen? 
Always.
