Thanks for the advice, but I've wget and curl installed through Mac ports.

$ which crul    => /usr/texbin/curl
$ which wget  => /usr/texbin/wget

And the value of my exec-path is:
("/usr/bin" "/bin" "/usr/sbin" "/sbin"
"/Applications/Documents/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/libexec"
"/Applications/Documents/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin"
"/Applications/Mathematics/MATLAB_R2014a.app/bin"
"/Applications/Documents/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin" "*/usr/texbin*"
"/opt/local/bin" "/usr/local/bin")

which has included /usr/texbin

Any thoughts?  Thanks.
