/* some requirements for this to work:
   1.   set pCertFile to the file with the client certificate
   2.   if the key is passphrase protected, set pPassphrase to the
        passphrase you use
   3.   if you are using a crypto engine:
   3.1. set a #define USE_ENGINE
   3.2. set pEngine to the name of the crypto engine you use
   3.3. set pKeyName to the key identifier you want to use
   4.   if you don't use a crypto engine:
   4.1. set pKeyName to the file name of your client key
   4.2. if the format of the key file is DER, set pKeyType to "DER"
 
   !! verify of the server certificate is not implemented here !!
 
   **** This example only works with libcurl 7.9.3 and later! ****
