Yes, the behaviour is different. Nevertheless, as it seems to fail completely
on Windows, I normally wouldn't expect that any app tries to use it - except
its an issue somewhere in your testcase.

As far as I know the content_length field is only used for receiving the data,
when the app tries to check the header fields the corresponding entry from an
internal list is used instead.
