Everything I try and connect to via https fails. Bellow is a curl output, but it does this with git mongo and everything. darwin just doesn't like https.

You might say not a problem just change https to http, yes this is fine when you only have
1 url like git clone but on rvm install about 50 of the required things fails to install because of this. I don't want to go into rvm and change all occurrences of https to http.
It turned out that my version of curl was using an old certificate to validate https.
I cam across this issue on git for cURL under Leopard:
https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/11947
And the error went away and I am now able to download https files from cURL.
