Hi,

Granted this is hardly an outright bug in pycurl, however I would
rather like to track it down.

python time.time() and monotonic time(*), cmd line date, ls, etc all
work fine with libfaketime;
command line curl works fine with libfaketime
pycurl/libcurl stack works fine with real time
pycurl/libcurl stack crashed with libfaketime
crash with both NOSIGNAL=0 and NOSIGNAL=1, non-thread-safe and
thread-safe versions of libfaketime.

is fake time is used for testing libcurl and is known to work or is broken?
it's useful e.g. for testing certificate validity, accelerated timeout
tests, etc...

any good pointers for debugging this?
