curl timeout behavior in ulti-threaded programs

Hello,

As the CURL_CONNECTIMEOUT and CURL_TIMEOUT options are not recommended in
multi-threaded programs due to the sending of the SIGALRM signal,
is curl hanging during the connection phase if a system call is blocked
and/or curl is hanging during the transfer phase if the server does not
respond ?

How may I plan the curl behavior in multi-threaded programs ?
