I expect the curl_ret_status to be "CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT" if
curl_easy_perform() takes more than 5 seconds. However, when the operation
times out, I get instead "CURLE_COULDNT_RESOLVE_HOST". Is this expected? How
can one differentiate between an unresolvable host and an actual time-out?
It might be a plain bug. It is worth checking out the code and see if there's
something obvious we can do.
It could also be that we have an internal timeout already and if that is
reached we consider the host unresolvable so the code doesn't quite know which
timeout that is met.
