$ php -r "print_r(curl_version());"
Array
(
    [version_number] => 463623
    [age] => 3
    [features] => 573
    [ssl_version_number] => 0
    [version] => 7.19.7
    [host] => universal-apple-darwin10.0
    [ssl_version] => OpenSSL/0.9.8l
    [libz_version] => 1.2.3
    [protocols] => Array
        (
            [0] => tftp
            [1] => ftp
            [2] => telnet
            [3] => dict
            [4] => ldap
            [5] => http
            [6] => file
            [7] => https
            [8] => ftps
        )
)


I guess I'll have to assemble something from that.
