If you mean statically linking in a version of libcurl, no, I haven't tried 
it.

In my experience, C++ + static linking + shared libraries + dynamic loading 
== boom.

However, the libcurl dependency in my build is confined to only one library, 
so in theory it might work. You'd still have to produce an RPM that installed 
a static libcurl.a linked to openssl in some location other than /usr/lib 
though.
