possible fix

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

In KIO::AccessManager::createRequest:

Since 3f3ed98 the new KIO::http_post API is used. For this to work, the request
size is needed. Whenever I try to use a form (e.g. lwn.net login) this fails
because sizeFromRequest(req) returns -1.
I'm not certain what part is to blame for this. I'm using qtwebkit
2.1.0~2011week03-1 debian packages.

I've attached a patch that creates a fall back to the old API if the size is
not available. I'm not sure, if this the right fix, or if the bug is somewhere
else.

Reproducible: Always
