"SSLv3 ciphers" are not specific to SSLv3, they can also be used
in TLS.

no-ssl3 doesn't disable the SSL3 methods.  That is, you can still
call SSLv3_client_method() and set up an SSLv3 connection with
that.  It assumes that if you say that you want an SSLv3
connection that that is really what you want.  There is work being
done to have an option to also disable that, that looks very
similar to your patch but then with a new configure option.
