That code is wrong, but I'm a bit surprised this causes a segfault if this
is all there is. What it looks like you're trying to do is get init_c
to pass back a curl handle. You need to pass in the pointer to the CURL
pointer to do that, like this: init_c(&curl) and store the handle like:
*curl = curl_easy_init();
and modify the init_c declaration to take CURL** curl.
