> "configure" runs "curl-config --libs" to find out where the Curl libraries are (and sets CURL_LIBS).
> It's possible to use a custom Curl installation by setting CURL_CONFIG environment variable.
> However, the actual compilation (in src/couchdb/priv/Makefile.am) uses CURL_LDFLAGS,
> which configure.ac sets to plain "-lcurl" (which uses the default Curl installation, if such exists,
> and not the one checked in m4/ac_check_curl.m4).
> Probably configure.ac should set CURL_LDFLAGS to $(CURL_LIBS) instead...
