Subject: cURL now also available as downloader with -L flag

The main reason I wasn't using cURL as a downloading tool was that I wasn't
familar with how to ask it to follow a re-direct. But I just found out that
its with the `-L' configure time option. So it is now added as a downloader
tool to the pipeline.
