Please keep the conversation on list.

You are doing something a bit different. It's not good idea to call
curl_global_init()/curl_global_cleanup() more than once for nothing. I know
there is something like a reference counter, but do not use it unless you
really need to. Basically it's not thread-safe and it can trigger a memory
leak under certain circumstances.

If you want to get more help from us, you'll need to write something like
a minimal example we can compile and run. Then it's easy for us to tell you
what's actually wrong in your code.
