According to the man page for curl 7.36 (man page says 7.27.0), you need
quotation marks around the output filename.  I haven't tried it withot 
them to see if it still works; I usually use -O.  However, the man page 
I have for wget says it should be --output-document=, but you said your 
example without = worked, so maybe the quotation marks won't make a 
difference in curl.
