Pleaes refer to the commit like so:

    f18604bb (http: add Accept-Language header if possible, 2015-01-28)

(cf. Documentation/SubmittingPatches::commit-reference)

"git show -s --pretty=reference f18604bb" is one way to format a
commit name in that format.

"HTTP the server side don't" -> "HTTP, the server does not"

What is curious is that without any of changes to the *.[ch] files,
updated test 5550 and 5551 pass already.

In other words, these updated tests in 5550 and 5551 probably are
not testing the behaviour the updated code intends to show.  Of
course, if we revert the code that taught the Accept-Language to the
GET requests in f18604bb, these tests will fail.  There is no reason
to touch these two tests to "prove" that the code change in this
patch does not break existing support, either.

OK.

curl_slist_append() makes a copy of .hdr_accept_language, so rpc
struct is still responsible to release the resource used for the
member when it goes out of scope.

That looks like a roundabout way to say xstrdup().  The whole thing
can be done like so:

	rpc->hdr_accept_language = xstrdup_or_null(http_get_accept_language_header());

And by doing so we kill another bug.  "struct rpc" is allocated on
the stack without any initialization, so the new code leaves the
hdr_accept_language member uninitialized.  Rather, we want to
explicitly set NULL to the member when the new header is not in use.

The memory ownership model for this new .hdr_accept_language member
in the RPC struct seems to be that the struct owns the resource of
the member.

And this is in line with that memory ownership model.

I however do not see anybody that actually freeing when rpc is
done.

Are we adding a new memory leak?  Shouldn't we be releasing the
resources held in rpc.hdr_accept_language when rpc goes out of
scope?

As I already asked, do we need to use a language code that has never
been used in our existing test to test this new codepath, or is it
sufficient to reuse what we already know that will not cause problems
in developers' testing environment, like those used in other
existing tests, like ko_KR, en_US, etc.  If the latter, I strongly
do not want to see a new language added to the test.  We are *not*
in the business of testing the system locale support on the user's
platform.

If this test, or existing tests in other scripts, do not actually
require the LANGUAGE specified in the environment variable to be
"installed" on the user's platform, then it might be an acceptable
alternative to use a locale (like "tlh_AQ") that is implausible to
exist on the user's system, but using what we already use in other
tests would be the safest thing to do.

Use ko_KR.UTF8 (and nothing else) like 5550 does with its first use
of check_language helper.  Or using en_US is also fine, as that is
also used over there.

As I already said, I do not think changes to the following two tests
are warranted.
