I've been using a Windows build based on the official 2.3.2 release
sources with the TLS negotiation (v1.0-v1.2) support patched in from the
development codebase. This has been running fine for me, although I
don't connect to a wide variety of servers with it.

I'd be happy to publish a copy of this build for early-adopters
interested in trying out the TLS change in their own environments.
Consider this kind of a "pre-rc release" to try out just this upcoming
feature so we can see if anyone experiences problems with a bit wider
usage. I need to make some changes to my build system to include the
signed tap-windows drivers, but I can probably have a gpg-signed
installer available in a day or two for the interested.

I suspect the impact of places this will break is limited to _very_ old
server setups where they should really either upgrade their server, or
simply continue using an old client that continues to speak ancient
OpenSSL if that's "not possible."
