... even for those that don't support providing anything in the
'internals' struct member since it offers a convenient way for
applications to figure this out.

+The \fIbackend\fP struct member is one of the defines in the CURLSSLBACKEND_*

+CURLSSLBACKEND_OPENSSL, CURLSSLBACKEND_GNUTLS, CURLSSLBACKEND_NSS,

 The \fIinternals\fP struct member will point to a TLS library specific pointer
 with the following underlying types:
