Yes, strangely this doesn't help. Actually, what I do is set the socket to 
non-blocking AFTER the SSL handshake, which I thought should work...

Could there be some issue with numerous SSL connections between the same 
parties? Or maybe it's some threading issue - perhaps SSL has some special 
considerations?

did you try making use of non blocking fd? it cannot deadlock in if you use 
that.

Thanks
