That's Debian's position as well, so we always link GPL-covered packages
against the GnuTLS build of libcurl in the Debian archives.

This is all reasonably straightforward for the Linux distributions (and as
the Debian packager, libcurl is certainly fine with me).  It's the Mac and
Windows binaries that will be the tricky part from a licensing standpoint.
I don't really have any further suggestions to offer other than what you
already spelled out (I know almost nothing about developing on Windows or
Mac OS X), but I concur with your analysis.
