CA Path Defaults across OSs

Hi

While working with LibCURL libraries across Operating Systems mainly
SLES and RHEL I am seeing that the Default path used by LibCURL for CA
certificate files is not consistent. In RHEL, LibCURL is able to use a
default path /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt while searching for a CA
cert; where as in SLES11 it tries to use the current default path from
where the Application is executing if CURLOPT_CAPATH is not mentioned.

Is this an expected behavior of LibCURL? or is there a default path
where CURL will look for the certificate files?

Thanks,
