Do you call these
SSL_load_error_strings();
ERR_load_crypto_strings();
SSL_library_init();?
If so, calling ERR_print_errors(stderr) after the error occured might
give informative output (provided that you checked the return values
of previous calls -- in case you don't have a working TCP connection,
for example, SSL obviously cannot work).
