I'd feel more comfortable seeing a Wireshark log of the TCP close. While
timeouts don't seem to be working on your system, it still looks to me like
the remote server is the one closing the connection at 60 seconds. The
log you showed had a "Content-Length: 0" header, so it would be impossible
for Firefox or any other browser to receive any data after that. It's
likely that the PHP script operates differently for Firefox compared to your
libcurl app.
You STILL haven't said which platform or libcurl version you're running on.
I suspect setting CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL is the reason timeouts aren't working
in your environment.
