db.create() creates document twice?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This is my first time with couchdb at all, so maybe this is expected 
behavior! Is it?

Thanks.

In [5]: server.delete('python-tests')

In [6]: db = server.create('python-tests')

In [7]: doc_id = db.create({'type': 'Person', 'name': 'John Doe'})

This is due to a bug in httplib2 that causes a request to be incorrectly 
retried.

Short-term solution is to apply the patch attached to the httplib2 issue 
report, 
http://code.google.com/p/httplib2/issues/detail?id=67.
