Probably not : My system's curl-config --protocols says that HTTPS: is 
supported. A trial of curl's configure --without-ssl --with-gnutls does not 
claim to support it (in the summary printed at th end of ./configure...).

However, I'm not sure : Debian's blurb about libcurl3-gnutls says that it 
supports https, imaps, ldaps, smtps and pop3s.

To be sure, I'll have to setup a virtual machine with a minimal environment 
(no openssl, of course) and try to setup libcurl (and, if successful, Sage) 
in that environment. This is time consuming, so not quite real soon...
