Some of the new initialized arrays (valchars, setstroffsets) should be
marked as 'const'. And there's a great opportunity for abstraction by
creating a Curl_isalnum macro. You might even be able to rework it
so it could be used in get_char instead of the valchars array, speeding
it up at the same time.
The dynamic option string parts might be able to be simplified by
unconditionally strdup'ing (or the equivalent) all string options on
all platforms, instead of keeping track of what has and hasn't been dup'ed.
I checked in the fread => fread_func et. al. renaming parts of the patch
as that has the potential to improve portability on other platforms, too.
