The logs suggest that hostname resolution is broken in libcurl and
there were related fixes in the latest version which may have broken
something:
http://curl.haxx.se/changes.html#7_38_0

I checked the network traffic and the system using libcurl gets the response:
...
  4 5.084815000    0.0.0.1 -> 0.0.0.254   DNS 71 Standard query 0x066f
 AAAA thetvdb.com
  5 5.126175000   0.0.0.254 -> 0.0.0.1    DNS 151 Standard query
response 0xa625  A 190.93.240.81 A 141.101.113.81 A 141.101.123.81 A
190.93.242.81 A 190.93.241.81
...

OTOH libcurl reports error to XBMC:
... 22:02:40 T:2805492544    INFO: easy_aquire - Created session to
http://thetvdb.com
22:02:40 T:2805492544   DEBUG: Curl::Debug - TEXT: Hostname was NOT
found in DNS cache
22:02:41 T:2741345088   DEBUG: webserver: request received for /jsonrpc
22:02:50 T:2805492544   DEBUG: Previous line repeats 9 times.
22:02:50 T:2805492544   DEBUG: Curl::Debug - TEXT: Resolving timed out
after 10050 milliseconds
...

Since libcurl worked well for XBMC for a long time and there is
nothing mentioning any intentional API changes in cURL's changelog I
reassing
this bug to curl for further analysis.

Dear curl maintainers, please check this issue.

Cheers,
Balint
