I have a scenario when I send a POST request but the the body should be empty and this case the servers return an error when I send an empty array with 

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $request->data);

The patch that I've created fix the problem by checking $content_length > 0 explicitly.

Without the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS or something else to set the "Content-Length:" header, any POST and PUT requests with empty bodies would be malformed. POST and PUT *require* a "Content-Length" header, even if it's zero.

I think something may be up with your servers.
