      this code and functionality has been broken since about 7.15.4 (March 2006)
      with the introduction of non-blocking OpenSSL "connects".
    
      It was a hack to begin with and since it doesn't work and hasn't worked
      correctly for a long time and nobody has even noticed, I consider it a very
      suitable subject for plain removal. And so it was done.
