1.0.1t is in unstable now. And 1.0.1s in testing yesterday (bad timing :)
Sorry for the delay. With 1.0.1t they did the right thing which they
should have done in the first place. Not remove the sslv2 functions but
just return NULL if you disabled sslv2. So applications will not explode
crash or whatever. Just will not be able to start a session.
I will probably push 1.0.1t faster to testing as 1.0.1s is broken from
my point of view.
