+Apple iOS and Mac OS X
+======================
+ On recent Apple operating systems, curl can be built to use Apple's
+ SSL/TLS implementation, Secure Transport, instead of OpenSSL. To build with
+ Secure Transport for SSL/TLS, use the configure option --with-darwinssl. (It
+ is not necessary to use the option --without-ssl.) This feature requires iOS
+ 5.0 or later, or OS X 10.5 ("Leopard") or later.
+
+ When Secure Transport is in use, the curl options --cacert and --capath and
+ their libcurl equivalents, will be ignored, because Secure Transport uses
+ the certificates stored in the Keychain to evaluate whether or not to trust
+ the server. This, of course, includes the root certificates that ship with
+ the OS. The --cert and --engine options, and their libcurl equivalents, are
+ currently unimplemented in curl with Secure Transport.
+
+ For OS X users: In OS X 10.8 ("Mountain Lion"), Apple made a major
+ overhaul to the Secure Transport API that, among other things, added
+ support for the newer TLS 1.1 and 1.2 protocols. To get curl to support
+ TLS 1.1 and 1.2, you must build curl on Mountain Lion or later, or by
+ using the equivalent SDK. If you set the MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
+ environmental variable to an earlier version of OS X prior to building curl,
+ then curl will use the new Secure Transport API on Mountain Lion and later,
+ and fall back on the older API when the same curl binary is executed on
+ older cats. For example, running these commands in curl's directory in the
+ shell will build the code such that it will run on cats as old as OS X 10.6
+ ("Snow Leopard") (using bash):
+
+ export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET="10.6"
+ ./configure --with-darwinssl
+ make
