Hi,
the curl binding certainly needs some love---if anyone has the time to fix
it up and maintain it, help would be most appreciated. There is a repo for
it over here: https://github.com/GaloisInc/curl which is the most up-to
date version I know of, but since the last commit there seems to be from 4
years ago, I'm not going to bet that there aren't any additional fixes
floating around. (cc-ing Don, who is listed as the maintainer, but I'm not
sure if he has time to deal with curl right now)

With the curl package on Hackage, I merely need an SSL enabled version of libcurl, and every Linux distro I've tried this on has several variations of such a package. (You have a choice of OpenSSL or GNUTLS, for example.)
I tried the CURL bindings on Linux some time ago and I personally found the thing pretty much un-usable. The API was incomplete, inconsistent and way too close to the C API.
However, I have had much better luck with Michael Snoyman's http-conduit package, which being pure Haskell (ie no C) should be much easier to install on windows.
