Well, that works for me too, so maybe we should go with it. I don't 
think it's an underscore vs hyphen thing, because it works for me with 
both. (The code in Exim knows to turn underscores into hyphens for 
OpenSSL and hyphens into underscores for GnuTLS. The underscores are 
deliberate in this test, to check that.)

I don't know much about this either, but the partial cipher suite names 
should be legal, according to the OpenSSL documentation that I quote in 
the reference manual (section 38.4 in the 4.60 edition). I wonder if 
something has changed in OpenSSL? Can you easily check the documentation 
for your version to see if it says anything about cipher suite names?
