I suppose you're talking about curl 7.10.2 and later? I know we've done quite
a few curl versions, but we're still far away from a version 10... :-)

Then please read the docs/BUGS file and provide us a stack trace. Perhaps
you've stepped in a bug that we haven't previously heard of so that it remains
unfixed?

That makes it sound as if there's a problem in the name lookup code. I think
it will help a lot if you provide that stack trace on 7.10.7...

10.2 "or lower" ? Are you sure they talk about curl versions? It sounds more
like a Mac OS X version. And if they say "or lower" it sounds as if later
versions don't work. It sure makes me wonder why.
