Just for the record, this translates to:

  error:140A90F1:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_new:unable to load ssl2 md5 routines

From the other mail you sent:

I think this might be the problem (and why the squeeze libcurl 7.21 works). Who
is using the libssl0.9.8 and who libssl1.0.0? You can check that by running the
command:

  $ apt-cache rdepends --installed libssl0.9.8 libssl1.0.0

My doubt is that two different OpenSSL libraries are loaded in the same process
(libcurl3 using libssl1.0.0 and another thing, maybe that php55-openssl thing or
apache, using libssl0.9.8) and that they somehow conflict with each other. The
reason why the 7.21 version works (which I presume comes from squeeze), is that
it links to libssl0.9.8 so that there's no double libssl loaded.

If I'm right, this is not a curl bug. But you can fix it by rebuilding the
packages that use libssl0.9.8 to use libssl1.0.0 (or vice versa). Alternatively,
you can use libcurl3-gnutls.

Cheers
