[issue21308] PEP 466: backport ssl changes

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan added the comment:

Christian, Alex, Donald - is there an in-progress patch for this available at all?

2.7.7rc1 is bearing down on us quite rapidly. Given the likely magnitude of this change, should we consider targeting 2.7.8, and give the OpenStack CI team and others a greater chance to check for any issues based on a source checkout before we publish it for general consumption?
