What libcurl version?

Me too. But recent libcurl versions should not be able to return back without
setting a proper error description, including at least some info to what
failed.

VERBOSE to 1 is the only available extra info here. Ah, no, you should use
CURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER to get the error text as well, it'll probably tell you
something.

I guess you can also set a break-point in Curl_connecthost() and single-step
forward until it fails to figure it out, and also figure out why no error is
shown.

Are you sure you want to limit the read buffer size like this?
