Does it still hold true?

I wish there was an option to cancel the current request using an easy
handle from other thread. It would have been a lot easier.

Following says that http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_cleanup.html
easy cleanup must be called after easy perform has finished .

Haven't tried it yet but wondering what would happen if someone calls easy
cleanup for easy handle from some other thread?
