Yes it should. But, the OpenSSL version string is based on the include files
at the time when curl was compiled, not on the libs actually present right
now.

It may be so, that curl was built against the OpenSSL 0.9.6 include files,
and then you get the 0.9.6a DLLs to work with now...

My local version of curl correctly identifies "OpenSSL 0.9.6a", which makes
me assume the reason state above.
