libcurl capabilities on Windows

Hi.

I am trying to evaluate whether it is possible to use libcurl on Windows without OpenSSL with native Windows SSL / SSPI support and how capable will the resulting libcurl be. We are looking only for HTTP(S) right now. Will the resulting libcurl be able to connect to usually configured IIS and Apache HTTP(S) servers?

Judging from http://curl.haxx.se/docs/ssl-compared.html, http://curl.haxx.se/docs/features.html and footnotes 9, 4 and 3 it seems to me that SPNEGO authentication is not supported on Windows and thus Kerberos is not supported either. Is this true? Only NTLM is supported on Windows. Is this true?
