Description:
------------
    When i try the following by command line:
       curl.exe -k https://websphereserver:9084/SOAP
     (command line curl version: 
         curl 7.14.0 (i586-pc-mingw32msvc) libcurl/7.14.0                 OpenSSL/0.9.8 zlib/1.2.2
         Protocols: ftp gopher telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
       Features: Largefile NTLM SSL SSPI libz)
     I can connect to the server.

     In a PHP script executing then comand "exec" like this:
     <?php
             ....
             $curl = "path_to_curl\curl.exe";
             $_url="https://websphereserver:9084/SOAP";
             $data="something";
             exec("$curl -k --verbose -d \"$data\" $_url", $result);
             print_r($result);
      ?>
     I can connect to the server too. 
    But when i try to use libcurl library as in the reproduce code section, i can't establish the connection. 

PHP versions ckecked:
    -- PHP-5.0.5Win32 with libcurl/7.14.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8 zlib/1.2.3- or
    -- PHP-4.4.0Win32 with libcurl/7.11.2 OpenSSL/0.9.8 zlib/1.1.4 - or
    -- PHP-5.1.0RC1-Win32 with libcurl/7.14.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8 zlib/1.2.3-
    -- php4-win32-STABLE-200510200430  with libcurl/7.14.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8 zlib/1.2.3

    In all of them shows me the same error.

  (I just verified that i am using the DLLs shipped with the PHP-xxxx in each case with Filemon Software) 

Reproduce code:
---------------
  $_url = 'https://websphereserver:9084/SOAP';
   $ch = curl_init();
   curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_SSLVERSION,3);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$_url);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $defined_vars['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
   $result=curl_exec ($ch);
   $cErr = curl_error($ch);
   if ($cErr != '') {
        	$err = 'cURL ERROR: '.curl_errno($ch).': '.$cErr.'<br>';
			foreach(curl_getinfo($ch) as $k => $v){
				$err .= "$k: $v<br>";
			}
			echo("Error $err");
			curl_close($ch);
	    	return false;
		}
   curl_close ($ch);
   echo("Output: ".$result);

Expected result:
----------------
Establish connection with the server as in the command line:
curl.exe -k https://websphereserver:9084/SOAP or
curl.exe -3 -k https://websphereserver:9084/SOAP 

Actual result:
--------------
Without forcing any SSLVersion:
(without writing:    curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_SSLVERSION,3);
in the php code)
Error cURL ERROR: 35: error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol

Forcing SSLv3:
Error cURL ERROR: 35: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number
