I still think "depending on the source" is wronge.  Let's read #2
(whose copy we also have in our comment) again:

    This option was known as CURLOPT_FTP_SSL up to 7.16.4, and the
    constants were known as CURLFTPSSL_*

A program that uses the CURLOPT_USE_SSL symbol would have failed to
compile with 7.16.4, as that version and older ones, even they had
the feature itself, did not use CUROPT_USE_SSL to invoke the
feature.  That is how I read the above sentence.

Perhaps everything after the first paragraph can be like this instead?

    The CURLAUTH_DIGEST_IE flag was added in 7.19.3 and
    CURLOPT_USE_SSL in 7.17.0.
    (cf. https://github.com/curl/curl/blob/master/docs/libcurl/symbols-in-versions)

The patch text looks good to me.

Thanks.
