Wait, it's other way around. The old code was broken. It used to fail
with probability about 5%. After the fix from 2009-12-06, which fixed
the OpenSSL code fairly well though, it was merely impossible to connect
with libgrcrypt. With my follow-up patch it finally worked 100% reliably.
I haven't had time to look at the new patch Peter has written, will do
ASAP.
