It doesn't surprise me, curl version 7.9.4 contains bugs that could cause such
things. Nobody should use that version.

Actually, if it works when you use it on the command line then curl works and
I'm happy.

If it then doesn't work when you invoke it using some other means, then I'd
say that you do something wrong.

I notice that you're not using -k, but then I guess it worked from the command
line without -k so then this should work too...

So what's the differences in your environment when you invoke them like this?
Do you for example have two installed curl versions now and mix them somehow?
