That's not clear to me. It seems to say that the 204 reply indicates success 
but there was no continue-100 sent in reply to curl's Expect: header.  That's 
in section 8 of the RFC. But it does seem to imply that "not modified" means 
"content not modified".

In any case RFC2616 is required reading before arguing about bug or no bug.

Why do I feel like I'm reading something that came out of the US House of 
Representatives?
