Curl stream wrappers and ext/curl are two different things. ext/curl APIs is quite clean and much easier to use than sockets when it comes to deal with http or other internet related protocols (yes, it supports ssh2, ftp(s), even imap). What is discussed here is the curl usage to replace PHP's stream implementation.
