For anyone using LWP::Protocol::https based Perl tools, TLSv1 can be forced with:

my $thing = whatever->new(
                ssl_opts => { SSL_version => 'TLSv1' },
        );

Another site that fails is paypal:

$ openssl s_client -connect www.paypal.com:443
CONNECTED(00000003)
write:errno=104

vs

$ openssl s_client -tls1 -connect www.paypal.com:443
CONNECTED(00000003)
