I found the following threads in the archives, that may be relevant to
this issue:

[1] "How to make to Apache-Tomcat 6.0.13 to support all of SSLv2/SSLv3
and TLS protocols", in org.apache.tomcat.users list
http://markmail.org/thread/meymo5jjzwmctuql

[2] FireFox v3.0.1 of Windows uses SSLv2 Record Layer even when SSLv2
is disabled
in firefox-security-dev
http://www.nabble.com/FireFox-v3.0.1-of-Windows-uses-SSLv2-Record-Layer-even-when-SSLv2-is-disabled-td19239646.html

[3] "Internal error upon seeing the "Camellia" cipher suites in the
SSL handshake message",
in org.apache.harmony.dev
http://markmail.org/thread/x6d77hsmklm3d3uh


[1] is regarding Firefox 3.0.1 that was trying to use SSLv2 handshake.
One of the responses contain a link to Tomcat SSL Howto page,  [2]
explains what happened at Firefox 3.0.1 side in that case. Finally,
[3] is Apache Harmony JRE side of the issue, and the one that was
actually solved in that case.

That was a SSL handshake issue that happened and was resolved about a year ago.

While current issue might be different, those threads show how that
one was hunted down and solved.

Best regards,
