[issue11725] httplib and urllib2 failed ssl connection httplib.BadStatusLine

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily <nad at acm.org> added the comment:

This appears to be a bug in the versions of the Apple-supplied openssl libs supplied in OS X 10.5 (0.9.7l) and 10.6 (0.9.8l).  You can see the same results using the openssl test client:

   $ openssl s_client -connect www.finratrace.org:443

With the Apple-supplied versions in 10.5 and 10.6, it hangs. With a newer MacPorts-installed openssl (I have a 1.0.0d), the openssl s_client exits after the error. I verified that the urllib.request in the MacPorts python3.2 which is linked with the newer openssl also correctly does not hang.
