So in what way does it not work with that callback?

At the least, it wasn't flushing data promptly to the screen, but rather was buffering it. If you blindly typed in user-name and password and hit enter a few times, you could log in..but it wasn't really usable.

I don't understand. How did your version differ then? It used the same callback, only requiring an extra option first before it did so, or what did I miss?

I was also suspicious that comparing function pointers might not work in all cases, but that may just be more paranoia (I usually program other than 'C').

First, you _can_ compare function pointers just fine, but you could also just set a variable where CURLOPT_READFUNCTION is set to make it hold the knowledge if a custom or the internal callback is used. But do we really need that?
