We've not spoken about this issue for a couple of weeks but in the meantime
I have a fix in my local version of libcurl that I am using for the projects
I am working on which seems to be working well.

Given this, I have created the attached patch for your (and everyone else's)
feedback.

Kind Regards

Steve
