Hi!

If I call DO-HTTP-REQUESTS with a REDIRECT-METHODS keyword argument
like (:GET :HEAD :POST) then if the server responds with a 302,
AllegroServe will re-send the POST request to the new location.

I don't know if this is correct behaviour w.r.t. the HTTP standard but
I notice that the popular browsers will usually send a GET request
(without the parameters) instead and this is probably what servers
expect. Would it make sense to change this behaviour?

Thanks,
Edi.
