Yep. IIRC the GnuTLS flavour of libcurl can only "use" the CACert option, 
but not CAPath (which is OpenSSL-specific). If the MacPorts version of curl 
uses the GnuTLS flavour by default, it may explain the different behaviour.

In Debian, libcurl3 uses OpenSSL (there's libcurl3-gnutls which uses 
GnuTLS). The Depends on libgnutls26 is caused by the librtmp support I 
guess.
