I think you've stepped on a libcurl bug!

Are you doing HTTPS through a HTTP proxy by any chance? That's what the
PROTOCONNECT state is for basically.

While in this state, libcurl does not extract and return the correct socket to
wait for and this is probably what causes this for you. I *think* this bug is
present there because the CONNECT procedure was once blocking so then this
state would never return a socket... and when we made that non-blocking, I
probably missed this part.

Does it seem like that could be what happens in your case? If so, I'll write
up a patch you can test...
