It would seem that I "fixed" it by removing the

Ouch, I didn't spot that but of course that would cause some serious errors.
You're supposed to provide a buffer to that option and as you didn't, libcurl
would write to some (seemingly) random pointer it would get from the stack...
A perfect explanation to the problem!
