Here's the version I use:
----8<-------------------------------------------------
$ curl --version
curl 7.19.7 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.7 NSS/3.12.4.5 zlib/1.2.3
libidn/1.9 libssh2/1.0
Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap ldaps http file https ftps scp sftp
Features: GSS-Negotiate IDN IPv6 Largefile SSL libz
$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 11 (Leonidas)
----8<-------------------------------------------------

AFAIK I use the "easy" interface.

latest curl and theses options.

Have nice day,

Christian.
