Your problem shows, that the SSL object is not correctly initialized.
* I assume, that we are talking about a recent version of OpenSSL.
  (Old versions (before 0.9.3?) required SSL_set_connect_state() before
  SSL_connect().)
* You want to perform a SSL_connect() with SSLv3 only (indicated by
  SSL3_CONNECT).
* You have initialized the SSL_CTX with a SSLv3_client_method (or a 
  generic SSLv3_method) or a SSLv23 method with SSL_OP_NO_* options
  set.
* You are not reusing an old SSL object that was already used once and
  not cleared with SSL_clear()?

Please check out all of these points first.
