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)

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.
