  52 <p class="level0">If you did not already call <a class="emphasis" href="./curl_global_init.html">curl_global_init(3)</a>,  <a class="emphasis" href="./curl_easy_init.html">curl_easy_init(3)</a> does it automatically. This may be lethal in multi-threaded cases, since <a class="emphasis" href="./curl_global_init.html">curl_global_init(3)</a> is not thread-safe, and it may result in resource problems because there is no corresponding cleanup.
  53 <p class="level0">You are strongly advised to not allow this automatic behaviour, by calling <a class="emphasis" href="./curl_global_init.html">curl_global_init(3)</a> yourself properly. See the description in <span Class="bold">libcurl</span>(3) of global environment requirements for details of how to use this function.
