Historically the problem with the USA is when they "export" code.

They don't seem to have any problem "importing" code that I've heard of.

That's why so many sensitive crypto projects are hosted in the EU or
elsewhere.

I'm not sure if libcurl would come under the USA's crypto export
regulations, by virtue of being able to link with and use SSL/TLS
libraries.

I understand those regulations have been greatly relaxed in recent
years, i.e. it's permitted, but I don't think they have gone away
completely, i.e. you might have to register or something.
