Summary: urllib2 on python2.2 ssl bug

Initial Comment:
urllib2 on python 2.2 can´t get some SSL pages.

It seams that it´s dependent of the server and the 
issuer of the key.

The server showed below (https://wwws.task.com.br) 
uses IIS 5.0 and 128 bits key issued by Thawte.

I´ve tested on python 2.1 and it's OK.

******** Code *************
import os,urllib2
os.environ["http_proxy"]=''
f = urllib2.urlopen("https://wwws.task.com.br/i.htm")
print f.read()


******** Output ************
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./httpstest", line 6, in ?
    f = urllib2.urlopen
("https://wwws.task.com.br/i.htm")

    buf = self.__ssl.read()
socket.sslerror: (5, 'EOF occurred in violation of 
protocol')

BTW it's not specific to urllib2, regular old urllib has the
same problem on 2.2 but not on 2.1.1.

Hm, I do get the same outcome: Python 2.1.1 gives a valid
result, while Python 2.2 gives socket.sslerror: (5, 'EOF
occurred in violation of protocol').

There have been a few changes in the SSL support in 2.2. I'm
assigning this to Jeremy Hylton, who made some of those
changes thinking they were for the better. :-)

Strange is that the same code works in python 2.1 on the 
same machine.

If OpenSSL says the server violates the protocol, I'm pretty
sure OpenSSL is right. So I fail to see the problem in Python.
