92. curl tool 7.47.1 in Windows will not --output to any device unless the
  device prefix is used. To send output to a device that has a reserved dos
  device name use the Windows device prefix \\.\ (eg: --output \\.\NUL) or use
  the redirection operator at the end of your curl command (eg: > NUL).
  The next release of curl will support --output in Windows to reserved device
  names without the device prefix for backwards compatibility.
92. curl tool 7.47.1 in Windows will not --output to literal paths \\?\ or to
  reserved dos device names unless the device prefix \\.\ is used. To send
  output to a device that has a reserved dos device name you can use the
  Windows device prefix (eg: --output \\.\NUL). You can also use the
  redirection operator to send output to a literal path or a reserved device
  name (eg: > NUL).
  The next release of curl will support --output in Windows to literal paths
  and to reserved device names without the device prefix.
