7.10.4 not working with SSL

Hello!

I use CURL with the following server software:

Apache/1.3.14 (Unix)
mod_gzip/1.3.19.1a
mod_perl/1.24 PHP/4.0.6
FrontPage/4.0.4.3
mod_ssl/2.7.1
OpenSSL/0.9.6

I have 2 problems with CURL VERSION 7.10.4:

1.) **************************************************************
When I do POSt like this:
curl -d "a=alfa&b=beta" https://username:password@secure.server.com

I get response:
"Server certificate does not match those at 'secure.server.com'"

I tried to install with or with/out SSL, but no help. So i simply
DOWNGRADED from CURL 7.10.4 to CURL 7.10.1 and it works fine.

2.) ***************************************************************
Now, with CURL 7.10.1 I have problems, when I try to fetch only return
ERROR CODE from a POST request:
curl -d "a=alfa&b=beta" https://username:password@secure.server.com

If I add parameter
-w%{http_code}

I DO get error code back, BUT WITH THE WHOLE PAGE!!!

If I use parameter
-I

I get RID of WHOLE PAGE, but I get RID of ERROR CODE, too!

QUESTION:
How can I retreive only ERROR CODE from the response, but without
displaying the whole page?

*********************************************************************

Thanx!
