Well, OpenSSL 0.9.6d has definately made a difference, although I wouldn't
say anything has improved.  I now receive a 'verify error:num=19:self
signed certificate in certificate chain'.  I'm not sure if that's an
improvement or not, but it looks better.  Apart from that, on the server
side, I now get a slightly more detailed error on what ails it: 'SSL3
alert write:fatal:protocol version' (prior to this, it was just 'unknown
error').  So, why would there be a protocol error?  I'm using the standard
'imtest' that ships with 2.0.16 compiled against OpenSSL 0.9.6d, so they
should be talking the same jive.

Any thoughts on this?
