I hope you can get away with at worst a minor skirmish.

I've made several changes to httplib recently to fix other SSL related
problems.  It appears the new code has some bugs.

Since you're using CVS, I'll mention that it provides many ways to
look for changes -- e.g. cvs log / annotate of individual files.  The
SF pages show all files, last revision, & mod time.  You can sort by
any of those fields.
