I did suggest on IRC to teach `git-remote-https` an option where it prints
the cURL version (and build options) and exits.

This would have the further advantage of making sure that the correct
information is included. If you have two separate binaries that both link
to cURL, they could still be linked statically, to different versions of
cURL (this could happen e.g. if you have a `git-remote-https` from a
different build in your path).

In short: I still think that it would make for a much better idea to query
the `git-remote-https` executable for the version information than to link
`bugreport` to libcurl.

Ciao,
Dscho
