The libcurl mailing list is a suitable place. I CC this reply there as well.

It is not unlikely that there is a bug or two lurking in there. The function
is rather new and hasn't had the same amount of testing as most of the other
curl code have.

Uh. It would be really good if you could make some more tests and see if you
can get this "page fault" somehow that lets you check where in the code it
occurrs. Does win32 have some kind of post mortem debugging of single
processes?

The code looks fine.
