James Rutherford added the comment:
The first patch should actually be modified so the condition reads (update
attached):
if body is None and method_expects_body:
thelen = 0
elif body is not None:
...
Demian, I believe this is equivalent to your 'expecting_len' proposal, I've
just put the logic inside _set_content_length. My approach was to leave as much
existing logic as possible in place to avoid the introduction of new bugs
(first patch wasn't entirely successful in this!).
As for OPTION,
If the OPTIONS request includes a message-body (as indicated by the
presence of Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding), then the media type
MUST be indicated by a Content-Type field. Although this
specification does not define any use for such a body, future
extensions to HTTP might use the OPTIONS body to make more detailed
queries on the server.
