Sorry, what I meant was that it has no way to register a function that
can verify self-signed certificates. SSL_VERIFYPEER means ignoring the 
authenticity of ssl certificates. Anyhow, this is a problem in bzr 
itself, not in bzr-svn (which doesn't use pycurl). bzr really should 
be defaulting to urllib at this point, which doesn't have any of these problems

Try running "bzr co" in this directory to actually check out the
files.
