Sorry about the belated reply. 'php -m' does list curl with version 5.4.38. PATH in phpinfo is C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin; This path is identical for versions that do load the curl extension successfully (5.4.20, 5.4.25, 5.4.30). Presumably Apache's "bin" directory is implicitly included as the directory where it's running and that's why libeay etc loads successfully there. I had a chance to try more versions and the break appears to be 5.4.34 => 5.4.35. Curl loads in 5.4.34, not in 5.4.35. Also of note, 5.4.35 is the first version that includes a file named "libssh2.dll". The 5.4.34 package does not include this DLL but does report libSSH version "libssh2/1.4.2" on phpinfo(). So this indicates perhaps something changed between those versions in how the curl extension is compiled and linked? Putting a copy of libssh2.dll in Apache's bin directory allows the latest version (5.4.38) to load curl. I imagine adding PHP's directory to PATH would also work but I wanted to see if that particular file was the culprit.
