Yes it should, except for bugs we fixed of course. It'd be great if you could
provide us with a small recipe showing how repeat this problem. Then we could
turn that into a test case and make sure it'll remain working even in the
future...

curl_easy_reset() should put the handle back in the same state as it was just
after curl_easy_init() was called. That would imply clearing timers and data,
wouldn't it?

What exact funtionality did you depend on that is no longer there? Perhaps you
inadvertantly depended on a bug?
