Summary: proxy and ftp - never issues request

Initial Comment:
curl 7.19.6 on openSUSE 11.2, connecting via ftp through a squid proxy.

I noticed a problem attempting to fetch from an ftp resources that curl appeared to connect and then do nothing until it eventually timed out.
Suspecting some other problem, I tried aria2, wget, and firefox -- all of which worked just fine.

So I strace'd curl and this is what I get (the proxy is 192.168.1.1 port 3128):
...

10137 16:03:52.937144 socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3 <0.000020>
10137 16:03:52.937229 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_KEEPALIVE, [1], 4) = 0 <0.000015>
10137 16:03:52.937290 fcntl(3, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) <0.000012>
10137 16:03:52.937340 fcntl(3, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 <0.000011>
10137 16:03:52.937394 connect(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(3128), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.1")}, 16) = -1 EINPROGRESS (Operation now in progress) <0.000057>
10137 16:03:52.937516 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLOUT}], 1, 299999) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLOUT}]) <0.000879>
10137 16:03:52.938452 getsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ERROR, [0], [4]) = 0 <0.000012>
10137 16:03:52.938516 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}], 1, 3600000) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) <29.348688>
10137 16:04:22.287387 recvfrom(3, "", 16384, 0, NULL, NULL) = 0 <0.000028>
10137 16:04:22.287525 close(3) = 0 <0.000079>

followed by curl grumping (error 56).

What I don't understand is why, after the connect is successful, curl doesn't send the proxy anything.

Message:
recvfrom() ?? Is that from the DNS resolve? It doesnät make sense to me.

Can you run curl with --trace-ascii and get a dump of that to show us?

We run ftp over http proxy in our test suite (in several test cases even),
which runs fine on every release before we ship it and it still runs fine
in our current dev version.
