[issue23476] SSL cert verify fail for "www.verisign.com"

[Laura Creighton]

Laura Creighton added the comment:

Antione closed this, as a not python error, as
if you do not pass a valid certificate to openssl s_client
it will not read the system certificates, which is clearly
utterly surprising and nuts.

The problem, as I see it, is that fixing this clear
absurdity may not fix a different underlying problem.  So this
one may need reopening  when the real error us revealed.  
See if John Nagel's code works ...
