problem with it (SIGSEGV-style). It clearly showed that the existing socket-state and state-difference function wasn't good enough so I rewrote it and could then re-run Jeff's program without any crash. The previous version clearly could miss to tell the application when a handle changed from using one socket to using another. While I was at it (as I could use this as a means to track this problem down), I've now added a 'magic' number to the easy handle struct that is inited at curl_easy_init() time and cleared at curl_easy_cleanup() time that we can use internally to detect that an easy handle seems to be fine, or at least not closed or freed (freeing in debug builds fill the area with 0x13 bytes but in normal builds we can of course not assume any particular data in the freed areas).
