Subject: testing procedure hiccups
the ssl tests aren't skipped if libcurl was built without ssl support also, when prompting for CURL_TEST_URL, the user never sees the prompt (this is how Test-Harness works) If you want to prompt, you should use ExtUtils::MakeMaker's prompt function, cause it obeys PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT and is generally not prone to this issue. Also, you should skip tests if the user doesn't enter a url (definetly don't assume "http://localhost/cgi-bin/printenv") or create a server using HTTP::Daemon (just stick it in t/lib).
These issues were resolved in V3.0 which is CVS. Unfortunately, it was never release from CVS as a module. V3.02 should be along shortly.
The default URL was removed. The MM prompt function was used for inputs. These changes were released in v3.02
