As far as I know you need the <osm> as for 0.3, but with 'version=0.4' 
instead.

All you need for a new node is the <osm> and the <node>. Nothing else is 
necessary.

In terms of how the issue with the 417 error was fixed, you need this line:

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,array("Expect:"));
