Sorry that I missed to mention that I had used libssh2 and as I
mentioned I could build curl command line tool could do SFTP, but
libcurl generated in the build process does not detect SFTP.

My observation is that the build process generate curl command line
tool with SFTP support but does not generate SFTP supported library.

Please let me know, Is that I am missing some thing to get curl
library(libcurl) with SFTP support, or is there any alternate solution
to get libcurl with SFTP support.

Thanks for your support.
