That is a name resolving problem all right.

Well, that of course indiciates that the problem is related to multiple
simultaneous threads. Still, I don't have many clues on what problem this
could be. gethostbyname_r() in itself should be safe to use and AFAIK, all
the structs and data that function uses are also multi-thread safe in
libcurl.
