In the man page for curl_global_init it says:

   If this function hasn't been invoked when curl_easy_init(3) is called, it
   will be done automatically by libcurl.

In my eyes this is pretty clear, but please let me know how I can rephrase
this to be clearer!

I've not seen this before.

Can you figure out more specificly what line number in the source that final
"client.exe!_Curl_destroy_thread_data() + 0x13 C" means?

Does it happen every time?

Can you try the most recent daily snapshot version and see if it works?
