 Log Message:
 www/curl, www/libcurl-gnutls: Disable pthread_cancel.
 
 This upstream change is broken on just about every platform because
 getaddrinfo is not really cancel-safe, even though it's kinda sorta
 supposed to be in POSIX
 (https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/functions/V2_chap02.html#tag_16_09_05_02).
 
 The mistake has been backed out upstream for the next release, but
 that won't come until November and we need to pull up the fix now
 because it's already biting users.
