I think he means that when a non-SSL client connects to some SSL server that
uses the OpenSSL code, the SSL version number check causes the connection to
be dropped due to an incorrect version.  I've seen this myself when some
data made its way down the socket ahead of the SSL handshake.  I think
Ashraf would like the connection to not be dropped and no data to be
returned.
