Your script works fine for me on Ubuntu 10.04:
$ python /tmp/test.py
Testing libcurl/7.19.7 GnuTLS/2.8.5 zlib/1.2.3.3 libidn/1.15

I thought the following might be a workaround for you:
c.unsetopt(pycurl.CAINFO)
but when I try it here I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/tmp/test.py", line 18, in <module>
c.perform()
pycurl.error: (60, 'server certificate verification failed. CAfile:
none CRLfile: none')
