Any reason for the odd ordering of be_tls_write() in
be-secure-openssl.c? It's:

ssize_t be_tls_write(Port *port, void *ptr, size_t len)
...
/* ------------------------------------------------------------ */
/*      OpenSSL specific code                                   */
/* ------------------------------------------------------------ */
...
static int
my_sock_read(BIO *h, char *buf, int size)
...
static int
my_sock_write(BIO *h, const char *buf, int size)
...
...
ssize_t
be_tls_read(Port *port, void *ptr, size_t len)

That doesn't really seem to make sense to me.
