Until this bug is fixed I thought this hack might be helpful for affected Python users. Not sure what problems this creates but this allowed my scripts to work again. Might be good until a proper fix is implemented.

I changed /usr/lib/python2.6/httplib.py as follows:

1116c1116
< self.sock = ssl.wrap_socket(sock, self.key_file, self.cert_file)
---
> self.sock = ssl.wrap_socket(sock, self.key_file, self.cert_file, ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1)
