While working on a libssh2 update [0] I noticed that curl was not
keeping a reference to libssh2, even though libssh2 is an input of the
curl build.
Our curl package is missing the required configuration option:
------
SSH support: no (--with-libssh2)
------
I assume that our curl package did build with SSH support in the past,
but I'm not sure.
It's unfortunate that we have to use a graft to update libssh2 even
though only a few dozen packages refer to it, because of this curl
issue.
What should we do about curl? Should we remove libssh2 from its inputs,
or enable the build-time --with-libssh2 configuration option?

Oops, indeed it does.. I must have mixed it up with something else,
thanks for correcting my flawed assumption :-)
