Thanks a lot!

I cannot with 100% certainty say that there are no bugs in there when used
single-threaded, but I'm not aware of any. And that's fundamental code that
has remained unchagned for a while and that's used by everyone, every day so I
have high confidence in it. (We've also fixed more than 900 bugs since that
release...)

That's why I suspect that it is related to threads. But to libcurl there
shouldn't be any difference if one call comes from thread 1 and the next from
thread 2 as long as the handles are not used simultaneously. To libcurl,
they're just calls.
