Indeed :-) The question is: do we set this loop in smb or in Curl_client write()? The later will resolve this problem for other protocols too.

Yeah, that would be better approach indeed. Feel like taking a stab at it?

Another question: what about the idea of dissociating crypto from TLS and adding a virtual lib/crypto subdir as it has been done for TLS ? The motivations are: not all TLS backends offer a public API to crypto-algorithms we need (although they can be featured by alternative platform-dependent libs or libcurl's own implementations) and the conditional stuff about crypto is gently becoming a mess.

Yes, that is something to consider. But I'm also concerned that it may just cause _another_ mess instead of the one we currently have and thus just be a lot of work that doesn't end up substantially better.
