And I used the stock debian unstable version and my current CVS version for
testing:

curl 7.16.4 (i486-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.16.4 OpenSSL/0.9.8e zlib/1.2.3.3
libidn/0.6.5
Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
Features: GSS-Negotiate IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz

curl 7.17.0-CVS (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.17.0-CVS OpenSSL/0.9.8e
zlib/1.2.3.3 c-ares/1.4.1-CVS libidn/0.6.5 libssh2/0.18.0-CVS
Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http file https ftps scp sftp
