Attached is my first draft at a curl-loader-config.5 man page.
There is one part with a big FIXME! section for the
RESPONSE_STATUS_ERRORS tag since I never was able
to make that work.  Clearly I don't understand it.  However, all
you need to do is fill in the stuff between the FIXME lines
and remove the FIXME lines and the .br lines next to them
and the page would be ready.  Please check the rest of
it in case I made some factual errors.  My source was the
README file, but it has some typos in it.

Alternatively, tell me what to put in there in an email, and I
can update the man page and send it back again.
