I just posted about this decision on the curl-library list.

65. When doing FTP over a socks proxy or CONNECT through HTTP proxy and the
  multi interface is used, libcurl will fail if the (passive) TCP connection
  for the data transfer isn't more or less instant as the code does not
  properly wait for the connect to be confirmed. See test case 564 for a first
  shot at a test case.

badness in the code flow even for the socks case.

the multi interface, which currently doesn't work because of how the data
connection is not waiting for connect before it tries to do proxy magic.

  If an incorrect password is given while loading a private key, libcurl ends
  up in an infinite loop consuming memory. The bug is critical.

  as reported by Ebenezer Ikonne (on curl-users) and Laurent Rabret (on
  curl-library). The transfer was mistakenly marked to get more data to send
  but since it didn't actually have that, it just hung there...

KEEP_RECV to better match the general terminology: receive and send is what we
do from the (remote) servers. We read and write from and to the local fs.

Fix type cast

'connected' truly is false when the socks connect fails.

Curl_done() fixed for the check-conn->bits.done-before-Curl_getoff_all_pipelines case

  (http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2784055) identifying a problem to
  connect to SOCKS proxies when using the multi interface. It turned out to
  almost not work at all previously. We need to wait for the TCP connect to
  be properly verified before doing the SOCKS magic.

  There's still a flaw in the FTP code for this.
