Applications that currently disable Expect: header use should of course not be

I've been debugging a problem with a server randomly returning 408 for
POST requests occasionally, and I finally understand now it is
happening because of this 1000ms idle time.
What is the proper way to disable the 'Expect' header which will work
across versions of libcurl? Does this work?
assert(curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_EXPECT_100_TIMEOUT_MS, 0L));
I can't comment on use of the Expect header, but I will note that you
should never put code with side effects into an assert() call - it may
in fact be a macro that is compiled out when NDEBUG is set. On my local
Linux machine, /usr/include/assert.h has this (simplified somewhat):
#ifdef NDEBUG
#define assert(expr) ((void) 0)
#endif
As you can see, the expression will not be executed.
Instead you'd want:
CURLcode res;
res = curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_EXPECT_100_TIMEOUT_MS, 0L);
assert(res);
