Make libcurl compile and run on DOS? That should be doable with
lib/makefile.dj, or at least that's a start to work from.

Then make sure FreeBasic can use libcurl. That's then basically "just" a
question of making a binding for FreeBasic to libcurl.

It has been built for DOS for quite a while so even though it may have quirks
at times, I believe it should work with not too much trouble.
