             nThis:


The curl backend has at least two/three more issues:

-It can block a long time in gethostbyname
-We poll it, instead of exposing the filedescriptors so others could select. A
GSourceFunc comes into my mind
-We poll it with a non zero timeout. We should check if we can poll with a zero
timeout.
