For me it seems that you did everything "by the book".
I don't understand how the error queue can be empty, when SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL
was returned.
(Actually, SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL is returned when no other condition applies,
but I have never seen this without a message in the error queue.)
(Desperate for an explanation :-): Did you load the error strings??
