I guess maybe this is the problem, then:
I also noticed this:
openssl (0.9.8g-8) unstable; urgency=high
* Don't add extentions to ssl v3 connections. It breaks with some other software. (Closes: #471681)

#471681 libssl0.9.8: XChat cannot connect to irc.mozilla.org:6697
When libssl0.9.8 0.9.8g-7 is installed xchat 2.8.2-1 (custom build with a ping timeout patch) and 2.8.4-2 fail to connect to irc.mozilla.org/6697 using SSL with the following message:
* Connection failed. Error: (336151568) error:14094410:SSL * routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert handshake failure
[...]
I can reproduce your problem. It's the change between 0.9.8g-4 and 0.9.8g-5 that causes the problem that we didn't expect to break anything.
Tee hee.

So it seems that openssl is sending something different while I can't see a reason why it should be sending something different.
I guess he figured it out in the end, though. -- mithrandi, i Ainil en-Balandor, a faer Ambar
