Welcome to KNOWN_BUGS #25. This has been a very popular bug to report lately.
Yes, unfortunately libcurl doesn't properly deal with a CONNECT response that
is closed, as it assumes it will always remain alive if the connection is
good.
I'll happily accept patches that improve this situation. I have no personal
plans to attack this problem right now, and I don't know anyone working on it.
