Thanks for reporting this observation. What was added in curl 7.21.2-2
compared to -1 is the support for c-ares. Searching the web, I found this

Allow me to mention that this is rather a flaw in c-ares than in curl. c-ares
just don't emulate/provide a good enough getaddrinfo() function yet with a
set of mixed v4/v6 addresses. (Patches are welcome.)
This is one of the reasons Fedora reverted their choice to use curl built with
c-ares and you can find a few other reasons too by asking the curl team or
googling.
