I also meet with this problem.
As http protocol, message body size should exactly match the
content-length. when there exists unwanted "\r\n\r\n", it maybe cause
some unexpected result, as connect resetted by server.

I have the same problem here, with PHP 5.3.2 and also 5.2.10.
Another thing that may be interesting: if you do the same HTTP POST
request on a
web server on localhost, then there will not be any "\r\n\r\n" after the
request.

Description:
------------
When doing HTTP POST requests using file_get_contents and an appropriate
stream context (http method = POST, content = ...) two additional line
breaks ("\r\n\r\n") are added below the POST message body. This is wrong
according to the default encoding "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
and has been seen to upset some webservers (content length is
incorrect).
Run the testscript and check the traffic using tcpdump/tcpflow or
wireshark. You'll see additional lines at the end of the message body.
Attached is a very simple patch against http_fopen_wrapper.c from PHP
5.3.5 source which removes sending "\r\n\r\n".
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$ctx = stream_context_create(array(
'http' => array(
'method' => 'POST',
'header' => 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
'content' => 'a=1&b=2',
)
));
$response = file_get_contents('http://www.php.net/', false, $ctx);
echo $response;
