good.

A simple idea to test the behavior of the openssl and nss flavours?
Making the associated options available to curl cmd line utility might
be a good way but I'm not familiar with it. I'll take a look if I find
some time during the feature freeze. For NSS, I have no idea.

Sure. Woud a patch against curl_easy_setopt.3 man page be ok?

Yes, I just saw that some minutes ago by looking the ML history ;-) I'll
test the patches against 7.18.2 when it is out and send updated versions
(with a new one for the doc).
