Did you change Makefile.inc?

HAVE_THREADS=true
USE_LDAP=true
USE_LIBCURL=true

I see USE_LIBCURL is missing from Makefile.inc. I've just added this in CVS.

You also need to have proper certificates. This normally means putting
something in the /usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf like:

crlDistributionPoints=URI:http://crl.xelerance.net/crl.pem

before generating any certificates.

Let me know if this still doesn't trigger the fetching for you.
