Follow-up Comment #2:

I hit this again recently and traced it a bit. The most obvious problem seems
to be that the curl_transfer class does not have any way to recover from
errors. When a libcurl error occurs, it simply returns and leaves the class in
an inconsistent state. Changing to a nonexistent directory should probably
throw an error and restore the state of the connection to the last valid
directory. No patch yet, but I'll assign this to me with the intention of
working on it soon-ish (but feel free to take it from me if someone wants to
work on it).
