That is certainly a small and neat fix, but it does give me the feeling that
this is just covering the effects of a bug rather than the source of it. I
mean, if the rewinding is done it is because it wants to resend data and how
come writesockfd can be bad in this place in the code if it wants to send
data?
It feels like libcurl should've bailed out already when the socket turned
bad...
