Please pay attention to details. It returned 1 (CURLE_UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL)
and the textual error message should've been:

 "libcurl was built with SSL disabled, https: not supported!"

Right?

This happens because lib/url.c was not compiled with USE_SSLEAY #defined. It
is quite simple to understand and prove, as that is the only place in the
library that detects this and that returns the error code you describe.

Also, please upgrade to 7.9.5 as it'll play SSL a lot better than 7.9.4 did.
