Description:
------------
Using PHP 5.5.10TS/Windows+Apache

After upgrading from 5.3.x, CURL is unable to connect to some SSL sites.

It returns: error:14094410:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert handshake failure

Adding the following parameters solves the issue:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST, 'RC4-SHA');

This was not needed on previous versions, and curl should detect it on it's own as they are standard.

Test script:
---------------
$url = 'www.miki.co.uk';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE); 
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING, "gzip");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSLVERSION, 3);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_0);
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST, 'RC4-SHA');
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url );
$output = curl_exec($ch);

Expected result:
----------------
Expected result: successful connection.

Uncommenting the mentioned lines solves the problem.

Actual result:
--------------
error:14094410:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert handshake failure

5.3.28 uses libcurl 7.30.0, versions prior to 5.4.27 use libcurl 7.30.0 or (some later) with 7.35.0. 5.4.27 has libcurl 5.36.0, as well as the latest 5.5. Any version I named show the same error you've posted. That means to me - either it is really some hard libcurl issue (which i really doubt taking in account the version range), or it is the website which has changed it's cyphers list to face the NSA threats :)

Thanks
