I'm in the process of creating another patch that should clarify any tlsv1, sslv2, and sslv3 issues.  At the moment, asterisk acting as a host can accept both tls and ssl, but the client will only send sslv2, which is kind of weird.  I'm adding another feature to let the user pick what protocol the client sends as well as documenting what exactly is going on.

Before this change, SSL/TLS options were not consistent.  http.conf and manager.conf required the 'ssl' prefix while sip.conf used options with the 'tls' prefix.  While the options had different names in different conf files, they all did the exact same thing.  Now, instead of mixing 'ssl' or 'tls' prefixes to do the same thing depending on what conf file you're in, all SSL/TLS options use the 'tls' prefix.
