Yup, it did seem to have a dependency on cygwin. So I built libcurl
myself and rebuilt the plugin. Still see the same problem. Dependency
walker shows dependency on libpurple.dll and dwmapi.dll which is the
same as the working plugin without curl.

If I comment out the calls to curl's init and cleanup, the plugin
loads. I moved the calls to other functions and not the plugin's
init/load, still the plugin does not load if I include curl calls...
