[erlang-bugs] ssl handshake failure on R14A (and git)

[Ingela Anderton Andin]

Hi!

We have located this bug and fixed it, it has to do with the fact that 
your server sends
several handshake protocol messages in the same TLS record protocol 
message, which is fine
and allowed but not all servers do. We had to move some of our code 
hinger up in our model to properly
handle this. We will push this to the public repository soon but due to 
some failing test cases it may be a couple
of days.
