I  did  some  more research here, first of all I cannot reproduce my problem on command line because
command  line  does  not  support  milliseconds, and it seems the issue arises only when you specify
milliseconds!!!

when  we  changed  CURL options in php into seconds the issue does not arise!! The bug is clearly in
the millisecond settings but we need milliseconds. I can see many people on google complaining abotu
this  option  not working correctly. I am desperate here as you see, I am willing to pay for someone
to fix this for me!!

Also I find this post of yours: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.curl.library/29210
where you say

"CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT does not really work for the multi interface in any
released libcurl version. We're working on making sure it works correctly
for the next release."

ps. we found similar problem with
curl_setopt($conn[$i],CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS,300);

we set 500ms but the error message is Connection timed out after 1001 milliseconds

as I stated earlier I am willing to pay to get this fixed
