You won't find me complaining on this. I just love the fact curl is now
included in soooo many OS distributions.

Well, eeeeh... uuh... that is most likely because the test suite doesn't run
properly on all platforms. I know it doesn't work on OpenBSD at least so I'm
not surprised it fails on Mac OS X as well.

I don't think you should mind that too much. The code works pretty much the
same everywhere so if you compiled and built it successfully, it'll probably
work.

Volounteers! I would greatly appreciate your help to improve this situation!
