There is no support for AWS[1] in libcurl and to my knowledge there's nobody
working on making that happen.
Personally, I'm reluctant to add native libcurl support for a protocol that is
made and used by one company alone that never involved IETF or a similar
organization/process.
There are lots of libs and tools already written for AWS support, one of those
even uses curl[2].
