Both responses look the same:
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 1567

Can't remember making a test like this before.

I thought it might be a request to the OCSP responder(s), since --cert-status

Does curl support OCSP beyong stapling ? I couldn't find an option for that...
