As opposed to? You certainly can't assume that a Win32 user is going to
have libcurl installed on their system, so your options are pretty much
either link your program statically to libcurl or distribute the libcurl
DLL with your application. This is totally orthogonal to the issue of
whether you acquired the libcurl library in binary prebuilt form or
built it yourself though.
