The documentation of WWW::Curl (4.17) states, under "COMPATIBILITY":
curl_global_cleanup
Only used internally, not exposed through the public API.
[...]
curl_global_cleanup
Only used internally and called automatically upon exit.
So this seems intended. (The duplication is probably a very minor bug.)
It looks like you can reach curl_global_cleanup() in libcurl from the
Perl side via WWW::Curl::_global_cleanup() if you really want but you
probably shouldn't. So just drop the call in tsget?
Hope this makes sense,
