An advice: use the curl-library mailing list for libcurl matters.

As there is _nothing_ going on from the server then there is no way for you to
see that nothing happening. Nothing is not very easy to see...

Unless you use a separate thread, the multi interface, the progress callbacks
or similar...

No, you need to first abort the current request and then send another one. The
fact that the server doesn't respond is a server error and resending a request
in that situation is hardly the correct way to repair such an error.

Several, as I mentioned above.
