Bug description:  final char deleted with CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER

I noticed a while ago that CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER added trailing null chars to the end 
of html pages, which seemed odd, but didn't seem like a bug.  Then I noticed that on 
binary files, in fact what it does is REPLACE the trailing char with a null char.

Oddly, setting CURLOPT_HEADER to 1 seems to fix the problem.

<?
                $f = fopen('/tmp/bla1','w');
                $ch = curl_init();
                curl_setopt($ch, 
CURLOPT_URL,"http://www.php.net/gifs/small_submit.gif";);
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE,$f);
                curl_exec($ch);
                curl_close($ch);
                rewind($f);
                fclose($f);

                $ch = curl_init();
                curl_setopt($ch, 
CURLOPT_URL,"http://www.php.net/gifs/small_submit.gif";);
                curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
                $ret = curl_exec($ch);
                curl_close($ch);

                $f = fopen('/tmp/bla2','w');
                $ret = fwrite($f,$ret,strlen($ret));
                fclose($f);
                
                system('diff /tmp/bla2 /tmp/bla1');
?>
