Description:
------------
Docs `bout curl_setopt notice the CURLOPT_TIMECOND and CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE options. Specifically:

<i>CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE: Pass a long as a parameter that is the time in seconds since January 1st, 1970. The time will be used as specified by the CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE option, or by default the TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE will be used. </i>

First of all, documentation is confusing: IMHO it should be read <i>The time will be used as specified by the CURLOPT_TIMECOND option, or by default the TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE will be used. </i>

Second, it is completely wrong: If you only specify CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE without CURLOPT_TIMECOND, then nothing will happen - If-Modified-Since header won't be send. Thus default behaviour is not TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE.

Next big thing about this bug is that TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE was never defined for astonishing high number of major releases. One can use curl_setopt(CURLOPT_TIMECOND, 1) as a workaround, but it is darn unconvient.

I don't know what version you actually have tried, but CURL_TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE has existed since 4.3.9..

So, is it all about documentation being incorrect once (no "CURL_" prefix before TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE) or twice (also default behaviour is not TIMECODE_IFMODSINCE as it is described)? If so, better move this bug to "docs" cathegory.
