I doubt if it will work with the rpm:s you're linking to. Downnload and install the sourcerpm,    curl-7.32.0-2.0.cf.fc12.src.rpm from that link, or get curl-7.27.0-12.fc18.src.rpm from fedora repos.then get the yum-utils package and run:sudo yum-builddep curl-7.32.0-2.0.cf.fc10.src.rpmthen install the source package, rpmbuild it and you'll get the rpm needed.You can do this on a separate build box.
