Yes, so at this point I already "downloaded" the certificate(s). Now I
want to print/store them so that I can actually have a look at them. With
openssl, this can be done with the -prexit option:

openssl s_client -connect host.comm:443 -showcerts -prexit

They are, however, more common in Corporate PKI environments than in the
Internet.

So all I wanted to know is whether there's a curl equivalent to the
openssl's feature mentioned above, to print out the cert (chain), even in
cases where the actual handshake fails. Apparently, there isn't.
