I need the option set when the socket is created so
CURLOPT_SOCKOPTFUNCTION (setsockopt) is too late. I'll try the
CURL_OPENSOCKETFUNCTION (socket) which should work, but why is the
callback necessary? Shouldn't this be the default? Why would I want the
connect socket propagated to a forked process?
