+Current flaws in the curl CMake build
+=====================================
+
+   Missing features in the cmake build:
+
+   - Builds libcurl without large file support
+   - It doesn't build src/tool_hugehelp.c which creates the --manual output
+   - Can't select which SSL library to build with, only OpenSSL
+   - Doesn't build with SCP and SFTP support (libssh2)
+   - Doesn't allow different resolver backends (no c-ares build support)
+   - No RTMP support built
+   - Doesn't allow build curl and libcurl debug enabled
+   - Doesn't allow a custom CA bundle path
+   - Doesn't allow you to disable specific protocols from the build
+   - Doesn't properly enable IPv6 support by default
+   - Doesn't find or use krb4 or GSS
+   - Rebuilds test files too eagerly, but still can't run the tests
