Sounds like fun! I didn't realize there were POSIX libraries available for
EFI, especially rich enough to support curl. What kind of changes did you
need? I'm assuming this was on Windows. Did you try running configure under
CygWin as a cross-compile and see what it came up with as far as config.h
goes?

This isn't a regular Windows target, so the build procedure might be a
bit different. Did you build the library with BUILDING_LIBCURL set?
