With curl 7.27.0, I noticed this message when building bzflag, from running "curl-config --cflags":
curl-config: line 138: CPPFLAG_CURL_STATICLIB: command not found
curl -V output:
curl 7.27.0 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.27.0 NSS/3.13.5.0 zlib/1.2.5 libidn/1.25 libssh2/1.4.2

I'm using Linux (Fedora 17).
It looks like $(CPPFLAG_CURL_STATICLIB) in curl-config should instead be ${CPPFLAG_CURL_STATICLIB} - see patch.
fix curl-config brackets vs braces
Thanks for the report, this problem is now fixed in the git repository.
