    Description

      There is no API for enabling or disabling compression which is required to connect to some buggy servers (eg. the on KDE bug 275524 [bugs.kde.org] ) there are probably other servers as broken as this one around. Only newish openssl's support this which means that we'll probably hit an increasing number of such problems.

      We can use SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION to provide this facility.
