I am outputting to a file so it is no big deal to re-write the logfile contents 
without the PASS, but not ideal since if it crashes, it might leave the output 
file with the password.

However an idea would be a new option to not include password in verbose output 
(say CURLOPT_VERBOSE_NOPWD ) or a new value for CURLOPT_VERBOSE, say 2L = no 
password.

That will be difficult as some of that showing is protcol data it shows 
verbatim. But I'm open for ideas.
