I have another fix that may be more general than the other one:
 
File: transfer.c
Function: Curl_readwrite
Offending lines:
infof(data, "Keep sending data to get tossed away!\n");k->keepon |= KEEP_WRITE;
Replacement lines:
infof(data, "Keep sending data to get tossed away!\n");if (conn->writesockfd != CURL_SOCKET_BAD) k->keepon |= KEEP_WRITE;
 
Explanation: turning write on with a bad write sockfd will cause an infinite loop when the read finishes since the write has already completed.
 
I want to be careful not to break something else - I realize there has been a lot of work in this area and I may not be seeing the whole picture. I can just be sure that this specific case is broken.
