Summary: [_ssl.c] SSL_write() called with -1 as size

Initial Comment:
In the inner do/while loop of PySSL_SSLwrite(), whenever a 
SSL_write() needs to be called again after a 
SSL_ERROR_WANT_{READ,WRITE} error, its "len" parameter  
is set to -1, leading to a segfault.
I can't believe nobody ever noticed that :)

since there is no '&count' in the _ssl.c code I'm using, I assume it's 
a typo I fixed just after uploading the patch, but I cannot recall it, 
it happened a long ago. Sorry.
I don't upload the patch because from what I'm seeing it's just a 
matter of deleting the '&'.

Why are you passing the address of count, and not the value
of count, to SSL_write?
