This sounds like an application bug -- probably it uses select() when
the SSL buffers still have data. (Even s_client had this bug.)
Solution: Use non-blocking I/O and try SSL_read just in case (or skip
it if SSL_pending returns 0 -- but SSL_pending returning non-0 does
not mean that there's actually any application data available); use
select() only if SSL_read asks for it.
