Subject: [PATCH] SIGPIPE: ignored while inside the library
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

... and restore the ordinary handling again when it returns. This is
done for curl_easy_perform() and curl_easy_cleanup() only for now - and
only when built to use OpenSSL as backend as this is the known culprit
for the spurious SIGPIPEs people have received.
