This pull request makes curl write directly to a file instead of using redirection via stdout. The redirection was originally added in 5c27446 to workaround https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=989133 (curl would create no file if the source was empty), but I don't see that problem with current curl.
A nice side-effect of this change is that curl shows download progress.
