Have you re-built your test application with the new .lib file?
Your e-mail got me thinking... There doesn't seem to be a .DEF file to
force functions to stay in the same place in the lookup table.
It looks like when you added SSL and compression, some of the functions
got re-arranged in the function lookup table.
I would take the newly created .lib file, replace the one your test
program is using and then do a build all on the test program.
I'd like to know how it works for you.

I tried upgrading to 7.15.1 version and trying to run a testapp on
windows. I built libcurl using the curllib.dsw in lib folder. I switched
on SSL and compression and gave appropriate paths for zlib and openssl.
I am getting some weird errors while trying to run a simple test
application, when I call curl_global_init it actually calls curl_getdate
function and curl_easy_setopt gets mapped to curl_easy_perform.
Something has gone wrong when the dll built and when the exe built.
Something wrong with the API ordinal numbers, either my exe is taking it
from wrong place or libcurl.dll is generating it wrong. Anyone faced
similar issue, any known resolution?
Thanks
Dinesh

This behaviour was changed in version 7.12.3; to wit:
- Made HTTP PUT and POST requests no longer use HEAD when doing
multi-pass
auth negotiation (NTLM, Digest and Negotiate), but instead use the
request
keyword "properly". Details in lib/README.httpauth. This also
introduces
CURLOPT_IOCTLFUNCTION and CURLOPT_IOCTLDATA, to be used by apps that
use the
"any" auth alternative as then libcurl may need to send the PUT/POST
data
more than once and thus may need to ask the app to "rewind" the read
data
stream to start.
There have been other POST fixes since then, so try upgrading to 7.15.1.
