Since I wasn't explicit (and my comments could be read to say otherwise): I
am +1 on whatever approach ends up getting SSL support into cabal. If the
least problematic approach ends up being "shell out", I'm OK with it (I
even did that myself[1] in the distant past).

I believe that shelling out would work for uploading as well as
downloading, correct?
