libcurl can crash when called from non-main thread #19

Closed kuepe-sl closed 6 years ago

kuepe-sl commented 7 years ago

libcurl uses SIGALRM by default for realizing timeouts. This causes crashes when certain functions are called from a non-main thread as described here.

This can be solved by configuring with --enable-threaded-resolver or --enable-ares.
