I am building Curl 7.61.0 using the CMake files, and I see it is now generating config files (CMake/curl-config.cmake) when installed. Big thanks for adding this feature to your CMake code !

Up to now, we where using a custom FindCurl.cmake module, that was detecting when the library was statically compiled, and when it was the case, was defining CURL_STATICLIB as an INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS of the imported curl target, with this code:

set_target_properties(CURL::libcurl PROPERTIES
    INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
	CURL_STATICLIB
)

Looking through the config files generated during install, this symbol is never defined on the imported static target, thus this target make downstream build fail at link time.

CMake: CMake config files are defining CURL_STATICLIB for static builds
633c055 
This change allows to use the CMake config files generated by Curl's
CMake scripts for static builds of the library.
The symbol CURL_STATIC lib must be defined to compile downstream,
thus the config package is the perfect place to do so.

Fixes curl#2817
