I am using curl 7.9.4 over a PPP connection over an analog modem. If I
start a transfer and the modem disconnects abnormally, curl will not
return.
Here is the scenario:
* Use kppp to dial into an ISP; make sure ppp0 is up.
* Curl http://www.netscape.com.
* While the resource is downloading, turn off the modem to simulate an
abnormal disconnect.
* Curl will hang even though ppp0 is gone.
Is this a bug or working as expected?
