Unfortunately it cannot be backported since it doesn't exist at all in
mainline. Someone has to figure out how to do it and to implement it
first before it has a chance to exist in a maintenance branch.

For the short term, I guess the easiest we could do would possibly be to
at least emit a warning when SNI is configured on a server with verifyhost,
indicating that it can represent a risk since the cert's names are not
checked against the ones in the SNI. Then we can remove the warning when
the check is implemented.

Just my 2 cents,
Willy
