I agree with Abel, that's the best choice if you can ssh into the box
(which is usually the case.) Although I think the use of `-n' in this
case is dubious (doesn't that disconnect stdin?)

If the target only allows SFTP and you want curl, I've attached my local
patch.

Theo made a point about not compiling everything into everything else,
so do prefer using ssh and sftp over curl-with-all-protocols.
