The feature tests?  That's exposed in pkg-config as the supported_features
variable.  I wouldn't be surprised if more recipes in meta-oe were using
curl-config though, so I do agree with you here: moving away from
curl-config would be good but scoping out the damage in a world build
including meta-oe needs to be done first.
