Yes, that could be done, at the cost of drifting farther from a
"standard" libcurl setup. The other problem would be that since Daniel
has indicated he not only likes the current model but plans to expand
upon it, I'd have to re-generate and re-modify it for each platform with
each upgrade. But that may still be the workaround I go with. Again, I
have no shortage of workarounds now that it's clear the current model
will stick around.

Thanks,
