I suggest we just make libcurl stop at 100K and then consider the rest not a HTTP header anymore - or perhaps consider it an illegal/bad stream and bail out. Any other opinions or perhaps nods?

I've just committed a change that will cause libcurl to bail out entirely if a received HTTP header is longer than 100K. It will return CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY as it is kind of a memory-related problem and I couldn't really think of any other existing error code that would suit better.
