I tried to give as much information as possible - sorry if this
wasn't in an appropriate format.

To cut a long chase short:

That was what I was looking for. I tried searching vor "environment"
"proxy" on the apple dev webpages but got no conclusive result.

Your tip was what solved the problem. Apparently the plist wasn't
updated when the network location in question was deleted. Deleting
the plist file completely solved the issue, curl works (again)
wiothout any hiccups.

Thanx for your patience and help.
