Summary: --with-libcurl doesn't work right

Initial Comment:
The sample autoconf macro distributed as docs/libcurl/libcurl.m4 doesn't properly search for check-config when the --with-libcurl commandline is used.

The problem is that AC_PATH_PROG already appends the path, which you should override with the third argument (not the second).

This patch should do the job:
