I believe I might understand why this happens, but it assumes a few things
about your environment.

If you study the configure output carefully, can you see if it mentions
anything about pkg-config and about using it to get compiler options?

Only if pkg-config says you do (and Redhat has been shipping OSes configured
to do so in the past and I don't know if they still do). The configure script
shouldn't use pkg-config at all when cross-compiling. This should be fixed.

If you upgrade to the latest libcurl, specify the path to --with-ssl and I
think it might work.
