Error on piping a request to a destination

[tobowers]

i was getting a weird error using the master branch of request and sending it to a file:

TypeError: Cannot call method 'apply' of undefined
    at [object Object].resume (/Users/topper/Sites/snap/javascript-openstack-object/lib/request.js:310:19)
    at [object Object].ondrain (stream.js:43:33)
    at [object Object].emit (events.js:61:17)
    at [object Object].flush (fs.js:1010:32)
    at fs.js:1051:10
    at wrapper (fs.js:295:17)

I changed pause and resume to operate on response instead of request. However, I'm not sure if there will be any consequences to the change.

my brain hurts, but i think this is correct.

Request is a duplexed read/write stream. pause() and resume() are for readable streams, when the Request stream is being read it's in relation to the HTTP response, not the HTTP request, so I think this is all right.

Did you happen to run test/test-pipes?

[tobowers]

yup - says "All tests passed." - but the tests don't actually check for pause/resume. However - I think we're right that pause/resume should only happen on response.

i'm gonna merge this today and write a test for it sometime this week before i release.
