8577,Attempts to use curl cause warnings on some hosts,Otto42,anonymous,"Some 2.7 users are getting these messages:

 Warning: curl_exec() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/nicetec/public_html/wp-includes/http.php on line 1022
 Warning: curl_exec() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/nicetec/public_html/wp-includes/http.php on line 1027
 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/nicetec/public_html/wp-includes/http.php:1022) in /home/nicetec/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 850

Apparently, when a paranoid host decides to disable curl, even attempting to use it can cause a warning. 

However, the real problem is that the only check for curl capability is ""function_exists('curl_init')"". While function_exists will return false for disabled functions, it's not checking all of them. Although why a host would disable curl_exec and not curl_init is beyond me, I admit.
