No, I am not confusing ssh with ssl/tls. Yet, it is very possible that I
am not expressing myself very clearly.

The reason I am mentioning gnutls and openssl is to differentiate
between the libraries/packages libcurl3 and libcurl3-gnutls.

The option --without-libssh2 is only used when building the
libcurl3-gnutls package. Hence it has nothing to do with the ability to
use sftp:// with anything which uses/depends on libcurl3, such as curl
or php5-curl.

Whatever libcurl3 can provide sftp support or not depends on whatever
libssh2-1-dev is present during compile time.

I am not saying that --with(out)-libssh2 doesn't matter. There are a
multitude of tools (including python-pycurl) depending on
libcurl3-gnutls. My point is that that compile option isn't the whole
stole.
