[dev] [surf] Peer failed to perform TLS handshake

Heyho,

I get this error message when navigating to [0] and a few other sites. I tested
with my custom patched surf as well as with upstream master (unmodified
config.def.h). I use net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.4.7-r200 from the default gentoo
repository. Wireshark tells me, surf is trying to establish a SSLv3 connection
which of course is very outdated and should not be used. In surf.c I could only
find the following lines, but no internals how to select allowed algorithms and
protocol versions:

> tlsdb = g_tls_file_database_new(cafile, &error);
>
> if(error) {
> g_warning("Error loading SSL database %s: %s", cafile, error->message);
> g_error_free(error);
> }
> g_object_set(G_OBJECT(s), "tls-database", tlsdb, NULL);
> g_object_set(G_OBJECT(s), "ssl-strict", strictssl, NULL);

Does someone have a hint how to fix this?

--Markus
