Florian Weimer added the comment:

OpenSSL cross-version updates are sometimes difficult because they invalidate 
certifications.  Updating Python to SSLv23 with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 is 
comparatively easy and also much less riskier.

Shall I submit a patch which changes the default?  I would also like to 
restrict the cipher suites to strong ones plus RC4, so that Python code isn't 
forced to set cipher preferences.
