That looks like it is only part of the actual error code. I suspect it is
because the server doesn't support secure renegotiation. You can check this by
doing:

openssl s_client -connect xxx.org:443

and it should say if secure renegotiation is supported in the output.

If it isn't supported the best fix is to upgrade the version of OpenSSL on the
server.
