I also have curl 7.10.6 installed (and it works fine). Using curl 7.10.6 I get:
 curl -m13 -o log/verifiedserver -ksvg "http://localhost:8990/verifiedserver"
* About to connect() to localhost:8990
* Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) port 8990
> GET /verifiedserver HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: curl/7.10.6 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.10.6 OpenSSL/0.9.7a ipv6 zlib/1.1.4
Host: localhost:8990
Pragma: no-cache
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, */*

Using the build of curl 7.18.2 and the same command I get:
* About to connect() to localhost port 8990 (#0)
* Connection time-out
* Closing connection #0

curl 7.10.6 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.10.6 OpenSSL/0.9.7a ipv6 zlib/1.1.4
Protocols: ftp gopher telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
Features: IPv6 SSL libz NTLM

curl 7.18.2 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.18.2 OpenSSL/0.9.7a zlib/1.1.4
Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
Features: IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz

In addition, curl 7.10.6 will connect to a separate URI and download files, but the curl 7.18.2 will not connect and instead returns a (28) connection time-out every time.

Thanks,
Denise
