Can you elaborate more on when this problem happens? Always? On slow transfers? On big transfers?

** [bugs:#1426]  curl v7.38.0 does not work with xbmc - cannot scrape or download**

Xbmc v13.2 does not work properly with curl v7.38.0. I cannot scrape anything now nor download anything through xbmc. The log indicates timing out to curl. I rebuilt xbmc against this new version of curl, but still, no downloads are possible.  Downgrading to v7.37.1 of curl solves the problem, so it seems to be related to this new release.
I have verified that I can download files form the shell with the current version of curl.  The xbmc dev group closed my ticket against xbmc with the comment, "report to curl."
Here are the lines from xbmc's log file showing the timeout:
