[issue17672] ssl unclean shutdown

Yes, it does, and the exception bears the error code SSL_ERROR_EOF (8), which is expected here.

The question is: why would you expect reading *not* to raise an exception while the remote end of the connection has been closed? TCPStreamHandler will only keep the connection alive as long as the handle() method is running, the connection is disposed of afterwards.
