The one saving grace about this situation that it's possible to build
Phobos without libcurl, and still get a working toolchain (just that the
stuff that uses libcurl wouldn't work).

Or at least, it used to. IIRC with the recent introduction of shared
library building for Phobos, this may no longer be true.
