Bug Description
Binary package hint: openssl
When connecting to certain sites, this one: https:/
When using ruby it fails with a validation error,
but when using openssl s_client or wget it works.

My first thought about this was that the specific site uses a wildcard certificate,
but I can connect other sites with wildcard certs without validation errors.
my openssllib version: 0.9.8g-15ubuntu3.4
home cooked version of openssl that works:openssl-
