That's not curl making it hard, that's Windows for you. Any other operating
system would let you read the file while another process is writing to it...
So, you need to consider a work-around. Maybe pipe curl's output into your
programs stdin isntead? Or maybe consider using libcurl and get the data
downloaded directly within your application?
