node-libcurl: sometimes an ssl error takes down whole process

I’m using curly inside a node fork process. when this error happens it does something that terminates the IPC between child and parent. Doesn’t seem catchable, all I can do is detect the process had an error in the parent process, then force exit it and spawn a replacement. that works about 99% of the time, sometimes it just hangs and I find the process stalled when I look at it later, but that might be a node thing.

Inside the child process I’m calling 4 promises with curly in them and using Promise.all on them.

I can provide any other info needed.
