I think s_client.c is buggy in that in does a select() loop where in
fact it the first thing it should do in each iteration is check
SSL_pending(con).  The result is that under certain circumstances when
no new data arrives over the network, s_client sleeps on select()
while SSL_read has quite a bit of internally buffered data that would
be ready for processing.  Fixing s_client is left as an exercise :-)
