Description:
------------
For some reason fetching the url with lastmodified and etag options doesn't work 
correctly. The server returns a 200 OK but the HttpRequest doesn't include the 
body.
 
I can reproduce this on:
Ubuntu 12.04
PHP 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.5
Extension Version => 1.7.4
Used Library => Compiled => Linked
libcurl => 7.22.0 => 7.22.0
libevent => 1.4 or greater => 2.0.16-stable
libz => 1.2.3.4 => 1.2.3.4
libmagic => disabled => disabled

Trying curl extension it works as expected.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$url = 'http://nikosams.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss';

//get the current last-modified date
$r = new HttpRequest($url);
$m = $r->send();
$lastModified = $m->getHeader('Last-Modified');


//try to fetch with lastmodified and etag
$r = new HttpRequest($url, HTTP_METH_GET, array(
    'lastmodified' => strtotime($lastModified),
    'etag' => "abcd", //if removed a 304 is returned
));
$m = $r->send();
var_dump($r->getHeaders());
echo $r->getRawResponseMessage();


Expected result:
----------------
Response header plus body.

Actual result:
--------------
Response header only.

I can also reproduce on ArchLinux with PHP 5.4.11

Better testcase that doesn't depend on external server:
server.php:
<?php 
$sock = socket_create_listen(1234); 
socket_getsockname($sock, $addr, $port); 
print "Server Listening on $addr:$port\n"; 
while($c = socket_accept($sock)) { 
    socket_getpeername($c, $raddr, $rport); 
    print "Received Connection from $raddr:$rport\n";
    $buf = '';
    do {
        $l = socket_read($c, 1024);
        $buf .= $l;
    } while (substr($buf, -4) != "\r\n\r\n");
    echo $buf."\n";
    $out = "HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/plain
Last-Modified: Mon, 25 Feb 2013 13:35:56 GMT

test

";
    $out = str_replace("\n", "\r\n", $out);
    echo $out;
    socket_write($c, $out, strlen($out));
    socket_close($c);
} 
socket_close($sock); 
?>

test.php:
<?php
$url = 'http://localhost:1234/';
$lastModified = 'Mon, 25 Feb 2013 13:35:56 GMT';
$r = new HttpRequest($url, HTTP_METH_GET, array(
    'lastmodified' => strtotime($lastModified),
));
$m = $r->send();
echo $r->getRawResponseMessage();
?>

Sorry, this is an issue in libcurl then.

pecl_http sets CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION=CURL_TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE and 
CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE=$lastmodifed, just like curl:
