      libcurl has a very stable ABI, major so-version remains the same since 2006 while API is being actively enhanced.

      Currently Zabbix decides which features of libcurl are available at compilation stage:

      #	if 0x071004 >= LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM	/* version 7.16.4 */
#		define CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD	CURLOPT_SSLKEYPASSWD
#	endif
#	if 0x071400 <= LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM	/* version 7.20.0 */
#		define HAVE_SMTP_AUTHENTICATION	1
#	endif

      Therefore, if Zabbix was compiled with old libcurl headers, upgrading libcurl will not enable missing features without Zabbix recompilation (ZBX-11629).

      Zabbix should be able to adjust it's behaviour in runtime based on version information it can get from a libcurl binary currently loaded.
