Hi,

I've started having trouble with my application
crashing after compiling it statically on linux Ubuntu
2.6.15. The application seems to work fine when
compiled on Windows and semi-stable, crashes
sometimes, when compiled dynamically on linux.

I am using easy-curl. Properly initialize it using
curl_global_init before starting any threads.

The calls that lead to the crash are as follows

CURL* easyhandle = curl_easy_init();
curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,
data); //data is a null terminated char array
curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_URL, url.c_str()
);
curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION,
_httpcallback);
curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_WRITEDATA,
inboundTransport );

struct curl_slist *headers=NULL;
headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Pragma:
no-cache");
headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Cache-Control:
no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,
headers);
curl_easy_perform(easyhandle);

here is the crash stack

Really appreciate any help you can provide,

Thank you,
