Oh sorry, you're perfectly right of course! I was thinking of an option that
*only* switches off the expire time check.
If you switch off CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, libcurl will completely ignore the
validity of the cert (apart from checking the name, which is controlled by
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST), including the expire date.
