Allow renegotiation if SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT is set as well as
initial connection to unpatched servers. There are no additional security
concerns in doing this as clients don't see renegotiation during an
attack anyway.

   *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
-     connect (but not renegotiate) with servers which do not support RI.
+     connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
      Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
