+1.25 Remove the generated include file
+
+ When curl and libcurl are built, one of the public include files are
+ generated and is populated with a set of defines that are derevid from sizes
+ and constants for the particular target architecture that build is made. For
+ platforms that can select between 32 bit and 64 bit at build time, this
+ approach makes the libcurl build only create a set of public headers suitable
+ for one of the architectures and not both. If you build libcurl for such a
+ platform and you want to allow applications to get built using either 32/64
+ version, you must generate the libcurl headers once for each setup and you
+ must then add a replacement curl header that would itself select the correct
+ 32 or 64 bit specific header as necessary.
+
+ Your curl/curl.h alternative could then look like (replace with suitable CPP
+ variable to check):
+
+ #ifdef ARCH_32bit
+ #include <curl32/curl.h>
+ #else /* ARCH_64bit  */
+ #include <curl64/curl.h>
+ #endif
+
+ A fix would either (A) fix the 32/64 setup automatically or even better (B)
+ work away the architecture specific defines from the headers so that they can
+ be used for all architectures independently of what libcurl was built for.
