How the curl-loader has been built?
Describe the commands.

This may be the crucial point.
The very recent versions of libcurl are enforcing faliure upon exeptions, if
not
specifically alloweed via API.

You choices are:
1. ensure your certificate, etc are valid and no-exception is required by
browser;
2. downgrade the curl package to some lower version that may require other
changes
    like not using asynchronous DNS lookups by disabling that in Makefile;
3. using libcurl C-API to explicitly allow such exceptions in loader.c file
via API

Use command ping with -I option to bind to a certain address
and check it versus some external address, like
$ping -I <my-local-address> <an-external-address>

 Working for a corporate means that you have some admins.
This is not a curl-loader issue. There are too many reasons, why
an address is not passing.
