This vignette triggers a curl segfault when built with
`R CMD build curlminitest` on Ubuntu 24.04 and Intel Mac.
The segfault typically occurs inside `curl::curl_fetch_disk()`.

```{r}
library(httr)

url1 <- "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioconductor"
response1 <- GET(url1)

url2 <- "ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/release-71/gtf/caenorhabditis_elegans/Caenorhabditis_elegans.WBcel235.71.gtf.gz"
response2a <- GET(url2, write_disk(tempfile()))
response2b <- GET(url2, write_disk(tempfile()))
```
