OK, I found the problem, and it's, er, obscure, man:

(setq i "http://requestbin.fullcontact.com")
(multibyte-string-p i)
=> nil

(setq u (url-generic-parse-url i))
(url-host u)
=> "requestbin.fullcontact.com"
(multibyte-string-p (url-host u))
=> t

And this made the entire request string multibyte.

I'll push a fix in a few minutes.
