Description:
------------
When the CN_match stream context option is specified for an SSL stream opened 
with stream_socket_client(), if the CN supplied does not match, then the stream 
connection does not fail and does not return an error as it should.

After the supplied patch was applied, the stream socket returned an error as 
expected; the output then was (I haven't delved deep enough into the code to 
work out how to set a meaningful error message and error number with the patch; 
all values in square brackets are my edits for privacy; line 17 is that of the 
call to stream_socket_client()):

Warning: stream_socket_client(): Peer certificate CN=`TempCert' did not match 
expected CN=`TempCert.bad' in [filepath] on line 17

Warning: stream_socket_client(): Failed to enable crypto in [filepath] on line 
17

Warning: stream_socket_client(): unable to connect to ssl://[ipaddress]:[port] 
(Unknown error) in [filepath] on line 17
SSL socket connection error: "" (0)

--------

I've checked and this bug seems to also apply to the current versions of the PHP 
source in the subversion repositories.

Test script:
---------------
	/* First set $server, $port and $cafile */

	$context = stream_context_create(array('ssl' => array(
		'verify_peer'       => true,
		'cafile'            => $cafile,
		'CN_match'          => 'TempCert.bad',
	)));

	$sock = stream_socket_client("ssl://$server:$port", $errno, $errstr, 5, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT, $context);
	if ($sock === false) die("SSL socket connection error: \"$errstr\" ($errno)\n");
	$msg = "A test message";
	if (fputs($sock, "$msg<EOF>\n") === false) echo "fputs returned false\n";
	else {
		echo "SENT:: $msg\n";
		$line = fgets($sock);
		echo "RCVD:: $line\n";
	}
	fclose($sock);


Expected result:
----------------
SSL socket connection error: "[some error message indicating that the CN failed 
to match]" ([some error number])

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: stream_socket_client(): Peer certificate CN=`TempCert' did not match 
expected CN=`TempCert.bad' in [filepath] on line 17
SENT:: A test message
RCVD:: [a bunch of random characters, different each time]

I should probably add that when I provide the correct CN, this is the output that 
I get both pre-patching and post-patching:

SENT:: A test message
RCVD:: Hello from the server.<EOF>
