Hi,
I found two core dumps generated in multi-thread scenarios in ESX part.
Case1: libcurl support multi-thread
core dump:
#12 0x00002aaabea89712 in addbyter () from /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4
#13 0x00002aaabea89b86 in dprintf_formatf () from /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4
#14 0x00002aaabea8b055 in curl_mvsnprintf () from /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4
#15 0x00002aaabea7678f in Curl_failf () from /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4
#16 0x00002aaabea6d871 in Curl_resolv_timeout () from /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4
#17 0x00000006e8a8f230 in ?? ()
Fix code:
esxVI_CURL_Connect() in esx_vi.c:
I add a new line as following:
curl_easy_setopt(curl->handle, CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL, 1);
Case2: libssl support multi-thread
core dump:

Possible Problem:
Two callback functions(locking_function and threadid_func) need to be set.

Would you help to give some comments about this two core dump?
