Wow, interesting...
So what's the value of having this reset() function then? Just to avoid
destroying and recreating a python object?
Btw, I tried using pycurl from the development tree, and it seems to be
working (i.e., not causing an error when calling Curl.reset()). Strangely,
it does report itself as version 7.19.0 still, not 7.19.1, when listing
with pip freeze.
