Curl 7.57.0 support brotli compression: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2017/11/29/curl-7-57-0-happiness/
I tried with the ebuild in https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/6723 - its straight forward and correct, but I hit the following error: make[1]: Entering directory '/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0-abi_x86_32.x86/lib' make all-am make[2]: Entering directory '/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0-abi_x86_32.x86/lib' /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=compile x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -m32 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/include -I../lib -I/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/lib -DBUILDING_LIBCURL -DCURL_HIDDEN_SYMBOLS -I/usr/include/nss -I/usr/include/nspr -I/usr/include/p11-kit-1 -fvisibility=hidden -O2 -pipe -Werror-implicit-function-declaration -pthread -c -o libcurl_la-content_encoding.lo `test -f 'content_encoding.c' || echo '/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/lib/'`content_encoding.c libtool: compile: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -m32 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/include -I../lib -I/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/lib -DBUILDING_LIBCURL -DCURL_HIDDEN_SYMBOLS -I/usr/include/nss -I/usr/include/nspr -I/usr/include/p11-kit-1 -fvisibility=hidden -O2 -pipe -Werror-implicit-function-declaration -pthread -c /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/lib/content_encoding.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/libcurl_la-content_encoding.o /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/lib/content_encoding.c: In function ‘brotli_map_error’: /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/lib/content_encoding.c:549:8: error: ‘BROTLI_DECODER_ERROR_COMPOUND_DICTIONARY’ undeclared (first use in this function) case BROTLI_DECODER_ERROR_COMPOUND_DICTIONARY: ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/lib/content_encoding.c:549:8: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0/lib/content_encoding.c:550:8: error: ‘BROTLI_DECODER_ERROR_DICTIONARY_NOT_SET’ undeclared (first use in this function) case BROTLI_DECODER_ERROR_DICTIONARY_NOT_SET: ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ make[2]: *** [Makefile:1508: libcurl_la-content_encoding.lo] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0-abi_x86_32.x86/lib' make[1]: *** [Makefile:734: all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.57.0-r1/work/curl-7.57.0-abi_x86_32.x86/lib' make: *** [Makefile:906: all-recursive] Error 1
What version of app-arch/brotli are you using? If it's not 1.0.2, can you please try with 1.0.2? (I successfully tested curl with that version earlier today)

( >=app-arch/brotli-1.0.2:0= ) Also, brotli is only keyworded as follows | | u | | a a p a n r s | n | | l m h i p r m m i i s p | e u s | r | p d a p a p c x m i 6 o s 3 a | a s l | e | h 6 r p 6 p 6 8 6 p 8 s c 9 s r | p e o | p | a 4 m a 4 c 4 6 4 s k 2 v 0 h c | i d t | o ---------+---------------------------------+-------------+------- 0.6.0 | o ~ o o o o o ~ o o o o o o o o | 6 o 0/0.6.0 | gentoo ---------+---------------------------------+-------------+------- [I]1.0.2 | o ~ o o o o o ~ o o o o o o o o | 6 o 0/1.0.2 | gentoo ---------+---------------------------------+-------------+------- 9999 | o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o | 6 o 0/9999 | gentoo while curl is keyworded as Keywords for net-misc/curl: | | u | | a a p a n r s | n | | l m h i p r m m i i s p | e u s | r | p d a p a p c x m i 6 o s 3 a | a s l | e | h 6 r p 6 p 6 8 6 p 8 s c 9 s r | p e o | p | a 4 m a 4 c 4 6 4 s k 2 v 0 h c | i d t | o ----------+---------------------------------+-------+------- [I]7.57.0 | + + + + + + + + ~ ~ ~ o o ~ ~ + | 6 o 0 | gentoo So please get brotli keyworded up to curl and then submit a patch.

There's already an app-arch/brotli keyword request bug, and it's marked as a dependency of this one (if you have any of those arches and can provide any of those keywords, that would be quite awesome!): bug 643182 Instead of >=app-arch/brotli-1.0.2:0=, the old version was simply dropped: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/commit/747fdfc3170b5bbd2ddd0093c91c3770d14cb846
