A client which does not supply the content-length for a POST request is
not HTTP 1.0 compliant. From the RFC [1]:
"A valid Content-Length is required on all HTTP/1.0 POST requests. An
HTTP/1.0 server should respond with a 400 (bad request) message if it
cannot determine the length of the request message's content."
For a somewhat related problem see this ticket:
