This particular page you found should've been removed too since it now
mostly contains dead links. There's no link to this page from anywhere (any
longer) for that reason.

(Look, I'm not putting any blame on someone, this is just stating facts.)
Indeed.

Hm, I didn't know that the bindings were third party sources.
Unfortunately, they can be outdated and their authors no more maintain
them. :-( (for example, the http://houston.quik.com/jkp/curlpas/ always
return 'server not found')
Anyway, I'm going to do a full Free Pascal / Delphi XE libcurl binding (or
improve some already existing) hosting it on Github.
