I've thought about it more, and we don't have to wait around for
initialize to be called. We can actually have the compiler make us a
constant:

static const int supported_ssl_opts = 0

#ifdef SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_INSECURE_RENEGOTIATION
   | SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_INSECURE_RENEGOTIATION
#endif
   [...]
#ifdef SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG
   | SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG
#endif
   | 0;

Then the 'variable' is read-only, enforced by the compiler.

Yeah, I think I was coming to that realization as I was writing my
earlier message: support either exists or it doesn't, and it's up to the
Java code to decide if it's so important that an exception must be thrown.

Patch forthcoming.
