Indeed, thank you for correcting that.

Sorry, let me try again. The ultimate goal is to have have multiple
threads that will have the same CURLOPT_URL, but that will all connect
to a different IP.
The goal was indeed to have one DNS cache per IP, so that even if a
cache contains multiples entries, at least they'll be the exact same.
But the code I posted didn't work.
Good news is I know why: I apparently needed to also share
CURL_LOCK_DATA_CONNECT in addition to CURL_LOCK_DATA_DNS. I assumed
the connection pool used the IP:PORT as key but instead it uses
HOST:PORT, right?
Anyway, problem solved, thank you for you time and attention.
Cheers!
