strange problem of no shared cipher for no certificate TLS connection

In 0.9.8a, it looks like AES 128 will be accepted by the server even if it is supposed to accept only AES 256. To reproduce this behavior, on the server run: openssl s_server -accept 4433 -cipher AES256-SHA –state On the client, run: openssl s_client -connect PISA_SERVER:4433 -cipher AES128-SHA
