Description

HAWQ-932 refactored out common code from curl_init_upload and curl_init_download into curl_init, however curl_init now invokes setup_multi_handle which performs the async curl request before curl_init_upload sets the upload parameter to false. This leads to a non-deterministic error where GET requests are made to PXF endpoints that only accept POST requests leading to a 405 status return code from PXF.
