 It is wrong in principle because cargo should still link against the
 library in /usr/pkg and will need the lib buildlinked for that.
 But all this points to the curl crate using it's bundled headers
 regardless which doesn't sound safe on any pkgsrc platform so we'll
 need to have a closer look at what it does. 
 
 A less wrong but still wrong workaround would be to only omit
 buildlinking the headers. You can do this with
 
 pre-configure:
 	${RM} -rf ${BUILDLINK_DIR}/include/curl
