The protocols curl support all run on top of TCP or UDP so it relies on the
underlying TCP/IP stack to implement and support those protocols properly. If
your host's stack supports IP fragmentation, it will work just fine (and a
stack really need to support that to work properly). I assume you're actually
talking about IP fragmentation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_fragmentation
