I've fixed this. The code now switches on curl version and provides surrogates for the couple of trivial things it broke on: a renamed constant and two strerror functions.
Tested and working back to 7.10.3, probably works with older versions too.

The missing piece is the curl_easy_strerror() function.

However, Rob mentioned that "real soon now" we'll require libcurl with RTMP support builtin, which, for a certain time period, means libcurl CVS. So it may not be worth doing backwards compatibility.

If you have a < 7.12.0 version, can you send some info about what's missing there ? (if it's straightforward I'd prefer to maintan
compatibility with lower versions)

The configure/build system currently doesn't check that the required libcurl version is actually >= 7.12.0, even though we use code that is only available from that release on.

The version can be checked by various things: header files, the curl commandline tools (curl, curl-config) and pkg-config.
