curl/RELEASE-NOTES
Daniel Stenberg ecf1c6ca5d - Added a macro for curl_easy_setopt() that accepts three arguments and simply
does nothing with them, just to make sure libcurl users always use three
  arguments to this function. Due to its use of ... for the third argument, it
  is otherwise hard to detect abuse.
