You didn't do these from the command line.

You cannot set two URLs. You need to set one, do an *exec() call, then set the
next and do another *_exec() call.

No need to set this option for that purpose. Since you specify the cookiejar
option, it'll take care of all the cookies automaticly-

I can figure out why, but I would still say that this is a bug in the PHP/CURL
code.

Correct, since it won't attempt to fetch the first URL. Only the second one
will be fetched.

I hope this helps.
