This seems to either be an issue on your BSD system or maybe is caused
by some old files in the curl directory (I had to do a make distclean,
which resulted in an endless loop, so I removed the curl dir and
started from scratch).

On Debian 12 this means:
(starting from privoxy dir):
cd ..
git clone https://github.com/curl/curl.git
cd curl
git checkout -b before-cts-regressions 073268a6de3
autoreconf -fi
# autoreconf comes from autoconf 2.71 on my system
./configure --with-openssl
make
make test
# Cancel this one after the testsuite is build and the tests begun
# (since I'm impatient and the testsuite is predicted to take more
# than half an hour).
cd ../privoxy/tests/cts
./run-privoxy-tests.sh

This fails with

Test scenario: acl-destination-denied
Overwriting default TESTDIR with /usr/local/src/privoxy/privoxy.ssh/tests/cts/acl-destination-denied/data

test 0001...[Request to denied destination IP address]

curl returned 52, when expecting 56
 exit FAILED

 - abort tests
TESTDONE: 1 tests were considered during 0 seconds.
TESTDONE: 0 tests out of 1 reported OK: 0%

TESTFAIL: These test cases failed: 1 

but this seems to be some different issue, than the one you described.


Maybe the above helps you to fix the limit the root cause on your system.
