Oh, the commands in the wiki exclude curl now. Did not notice that.
I am fine with the situation, I can deal with these things. Hopefully others will read the wiki. :D
For those like me that followed the news article's instructions first and ran into the curl issue, I fixed this by coping the old curl package (that was just replaced) from /var/cache/pacman/pkg into an empty subdirectory in my home directory and unpacked it. Then, as root I replaced the /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.2.0 library with the one found in the package. This fixed pacman, allowing me to downgrade curl properly with "pacman -U". The rest can then be done as described on the wiki page. Paul
