Yeah I could see streaming being a problem also.
Anything but a reasonably a http connection that closes fast enough will
probably crash.

I'm meeting with Alp Toker in a few weeks and I'll get a patch out soon after.
Right now I've got to get a demo going.

The new version is doing stuff like this.
    curl_multi_setopt(d->m_curlMultiHandle, CURLMOPT_SOCKETFUNCTION,
socketCallback);
    curl_multi_setopt(d->m_curlMultiHandle, CURLMOPT_SOCKETDATA,this);
    curl_multi_setopt(d->m_curlMultiHandle,
CURLMOPT_TIMERFUNCTION,timerCallback);
    curl_multi_setopt(d->m_curlMultiHandle, CURLMOPT_TIMERDATA,this);

Which is a lot better and has not crashed yet for me.
Curl still has a few bogus timer callbacks but this can be fixed a bit later.
The big issue left is msg's to the multi handle should be possible from a
callback. But I'll need to send a patch in for curl itself to fix this.
