AC_CHECK_LIB in ext/curl/config.m4 fails if cURL is
installed elsewhere than /usr/local or /usr, regardless
of --with-curl=[directory] setting. The CHECK_LIB macro
provides an optional fourth argument which should in this
case be set to $CURL_LIBS to make sure the test linking
goes ok.

Or, inline (let's hope it wraps ok):

Fixed in CVS. You also need to have -L$CURL_DIR/lib after
the $CURL_LIBS since the path is not necessarily given
by curl-config.

Actually, I notified the cURL development list about this
issue, and Daniel Stenberg agreed that -L@libdir@ should
go into curl-config.in.

Thus, hopefully, -L${CURL_LIB}/lib is not needed after
some future release of cURL.
