MacPorts can't rely on a MacPorts-provided curl library existing. (It won't, for example, when you initially install MacPorts, since no ports have been installed yet at that point.) I've long thought that we should bundle a newer copy of libcurl with MacPorts to solve issues like this. I filed #51516 for this. Thank you for filing this as enhancement idea! And don't forget to bundle the ca certs.
I found a hack how to update `libcurl.4.dylib` on my 10.5.8 PPC box. ... Please do not replace parts of OS X in this manner. We cannot support such custom configurations. Of course this hack is not seriously recommended. I was just curious if my speculation on the reasons for these download troubles was correct :-)
