Hi Allister,
'curl' is a tool that comes with many Unix distributions, used for
transferring data to or from a server. The official cURL web site is
http://curl.haxx.se/, and you can see the manpage for this command at
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html. I guess that the wiki is somehow
interpreting this word as a command.
To get around this problem, try escaping the word 'curl' in your page; e.g.:
This is a sentence with [=curl=] in it.
If that doesn't work, you could always try disabling or uninstalling curl,
if you have no other use for it.

I've just done a snot-load of investigating on what, precisely upsets it
because I discovered that if I just put "xx" as the page content, it allowed
me to save with no problems. By slowly eliminating sections of the text I
was cutting and pasting into the page I discovered that the above error is
generated if your page contains the following string:
"curl "
Note that there has to be a space after the word. If the word ends a line,
then it works fine.
HUH???? What is this all about???
