Yes, it appears that the lone test 530 failure was happenstance. I
mentioned that in case there were possibly some NS-related race
condition, but I [now] doubt that's the culprit.
I've found that OpenSSL also is internally detecting a divide-by-zero
error, which causes libcurl to [attempt to] clean up, which is when the
double-free trap occurs. i.e., strange things are apparently happening
within OpenSSL. (Even if the problem originates elsewhere, I question
the wisdom of waiting for it to become a div-by-0 error before detecting
it.)
Thanks again for your assistance and pointers!
