Here are the real patches, which were much more involved. I hate how my mistakes live for all eternity on the internet :-) (This is the patch that Peter K applied, well at least the one I sent him to) http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-bugs/2007-July/000386.html and http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-patches/2007-July/000184.html I'd appreciate any comments/cleanup. If I sound frustrated in those posts it is because it was not a simple thing to fix and the code in there was twisted enough that I am still worried I may have left a latent bug. It's been working fine for me though, but I've not got any other use for SSL in my apps. I'd prefer option 1, although failing that option 2. It is unlikely anybody else will patch this until the final fix comes out. I've not had any response from /// about inclusion in a later release, and it isn't in the last snapshot I looked at, but this seems to be fairly standard (not in a bad way, I'm sure they're just busy). If someone can ask them nicely to include it when they're at the EUC I'm sure we'd all appreciate it.
