Ok, so no argument that making the tests pass is a good thing, but
there are things in here that look like new features and have nothing
to do with actually fixing existing tests.  The SSL stuff in the
client code for example.  Please at least go back and document what
was changed in the log message.

If you're going to comment something out to keep it from running, at
least leave a note next to it about why.  If you get hit by a bus
tomorrow you want to make sure the next person who looks at those
tests can tell why they were commented out.
