Note:  I looked at rolling that patch from the github link into the
lib/url.c for the EL6 curl ... but the version of url.c in EL6 is too
different for me to be able to figure out how to backport the patch.

You should monitor the redhat bugzilla link I posted as it looks as if
they are going to try to release a fix for that issue and when they do
it might also fix your issue.
