We'll happily welcome patches that improve libcurl, in this area as well as

Sure, I'll consider it. The only issue that comes to mind is, in curl-land,
how would I malloc() memory that is aligned to at least _Alignof(SOCKET)?
I suppose that this ought to happen automatically if the hosting
application's malloc is sane.
malloc is defined [1] to return memory aligned for this:
"The pointer returned if the allocation succeeds shall be suitably aligned so
that it may be assigned to a pointer to any type of object and then used to
access such an object"
