It's obviously not correct in general. Consider the following:
FUBAR foo HTTP/1.1
foo
There's no content-length, so Polipo will run discardBody with len=-1,
which will keep it from trying to interpret the ``foo'' as another request.

That's silly, and it will break Polipo. Consider the following:
CONNECT localhost:80 HTTP/1.1
Content-Length: 0
POST whatever HTTP/1.1
After Polipo returns an error from CONNECT, it will interpret the POST
as the beginning of a new request rather than part of the failed CONNECT
request, which will cause confusion.
