Hello,

get_headers() fails with this king of URL : http://www.radioblogclub.com/listen.php?u=..wLzRmb192cv8mZulmLzRmcvNWZy9Gb1NmcvBnch12b0FmL3d3d/Wolf%2520Eyes%2520-%2520The%2520driller.rbs&k=657ecb3231ac0b275497d4d6f00b61a1

it returns me :
Warning:  get_headers(http://www.radioblogclub.com/listen.php?u=..wLzRmb192cv8mZulmLzRmcvNWZy9Gb1NmcvBnch12b0FmL3d3d/Wolf%2520Eyes%2520-%2520The%2520driller.rbs&k=657ecb3231ac0b275497d4d6f00b61a1) [function.get-headers]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!  in ********* on line 5.

But when you type this URL in your browser, it works well, it redirects you to a file. (header(location))


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$url = 'http://www.radioblogclub.com/listen.php?u=..wLzRmb192cv8mZulmLzRmcvNWZy9Gb1NmcvBnch12b0FmL3d3d/Wolf%2520Eyes%2520-%2520The%2520driller.rbs&k=657ecb3231ac0b275497d4d6f00b61a1';
print_r(get_headers($url));
?>


Expected result:
----------------
Fetches all the headers sent by the server in response to my HTTP request

Actual result:
--------------
Warning:  get_headers(http://www.radioblogclub.com/listen.php?u=..wLzRmb192cv8mZulmLzRmcvNWZy9Gb1NmcvBnch12b0FmL3d3d/Wolf%2520Eyes%2520-%2520The%2520driller.rbs&k=657ecb3231ac0b275497d4d6f00b61a1) [function.get-headers]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!  in ********* on line 5.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

The returned Location header incorrectly contains spaces.
You can get the response header (before the failure) from the $http_response_header array.
