Description:
------------
Using the cURL to send files with the Content-Type different of set in cURL (Eg.: "@filename;type=content-type"), PHP reads entire string after the @ and tries to find the file, that does not exists because of ";type=".

Running an I/O monitor, verified that PHP tries to find the file "filename;type=content-type" (defined after @), which in fact does not exist.

Probably the problem is in interface.c, in line 1484, where the string wasn't separated in filename and content-type.

The above procedure was followed the response of the bug reported in #41610, the manual of cURL in http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manual.html, in addition to comments of this issue in http://curl.haxx. se/mail/curlphp-2007-12/0033.html


Reproduce code:
---------------
# File test.php
-----------------
$data = array('file' => '@sheet.xls;type=application/vnd.ms-excel');

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://localhost/upload.php');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
curl_exec($ch);

echo curl_error($ch);


# File upload.php
-------------------
print_r($_FILES);


Expected result:
----------------
# Response of test.php
------------------------
Array
(
    [file] => Array
        (
            [name] => sheet.xls
            [type] => application/vnd.ms-excel
            [tmp_name] => /tmp/php2B8.tmp
            [error] => 0
            [size] => 13824
        )
)


Actual result:
--------------
# Response of test.php
------------------------
failed creating formpost data

I succeeded to change type(content-type) but not a filename. Is it really fixed?
