I seriously doubt that, although I can't really argue about it without a lot
of more facts and info.

Okey. If you compiled and built curl on that path, it should work ok. If you
moved it after you built it, remove it and re-build it to make it work.

Curl is built with the help of libtool. The src/curl file becomes a script
that sets correct environment variables for it to find its libs etc. You
should use 'make install' to get the executable and libs installed at the
correct place. Then you won't see that libtool shellscript anymore.
