This looks much better, but I still have a few questions and remarks:

o Can you describe your use case for this feature?

o This code can also easily fail. Like if you first get a URL that leaves a
   connection alive, then you get a second using the same curl handle but from
   a server that makes a "Connection: close" as then your request to extract
   the socket will return the one from the first request and not the most
   recent one that I bet the user would expect.

o Why is this function limited to "HTTP sockets"?

o Are you aware that the HTTP bit is also set for HTTPS connections?
