Yes, because you use a recent 'curl' tool and that does indeed support that
option, only that when it passes on that setting to the library, you use a
library that doesn't understand the option and instead just ignores it.

The curl code should ideed discover that it tries to set an option that the
underlying library doesn't support, but it is rather naive and therefore
doesn't. This is just another area where we can still improve.
