Hi Mike,

This site is a bad example. I'm getting a 404 when I try that link. I
believe the first call worked, the other 5 subsequent calls didn't. This
could be a side effect of this URL.

I change to my work's URL being "https://www.nikhef.nl/" and it worked on my
laptop. So your code should've worked too, but my libcurl is 7.28-1 and
using DarwinSSL at the moment.

I moved it to my CentOS 5 VM and observe the exact same problem. I'm using
the same stock libcurl version there and indeed something is not right. My
second call to my URL failed.

I believe the OpenSSL context is not reset properly or something along those
lines in the version curl-7.15.5-15.el5.

My intermediate conclusion is that this problem is solved in a future
version of libcurl.
