No, I still cannot see what the problem is or what the solution is supposed
to do.

What kind of warning are you refering to that curl should display? When we're
running SSL without verifying the remote's certificate, how can we warn and
for what?

Yes, we could theoretcly add the "error 20" you mention that the 'openssl'
tool displays, but what good would that do? That error would also get
displayed on *numerous* non-spoofed uses of SSL... (as I tried this).

So, my question remains. What is the problem and what is the solution?
