Fixed in master 8823d1c0 and mono-2-6 f0f2b053.
I don't know if it will be in the upcoming 2.8.0, but it will be in the next
2.6.x/2.8.x releases too.

Thanks.

Btw, the actual problem was that we were sending the Content-Length header from
the initial POST in the redirected GET. The server, instead of ignoring the
header (it's a GET after all) waited for the data to be uploaded.
