Consider using the more appropriate curl-library list for libcurl stuff. This

I'm not sure exactly what you need in order to accomplish these features, so I
can't tell for sure.

I have a work in progress that provides a brand new "certinfo" extraction for
libcurl (that currently only works for OpenSSL-powered libcurls) that will
make it easy to extract certificate and info about certificates, but I don't
think it'll offer all this you want.

I'll update the certinfo patch and post it to the libcurl list soonish so that
people can get a chance to play with it. I expect to get it merged into CVS
after the 7.19.0 release.
