Don't worry about the application -- it was a thow-away proof of
concept thing, already forgotten.  You're probably right there are
otherways to do it.  I did consider stunnel briefly but there was some
reason s_client fit better into the existing perl glue code I had.

Either way though s_client's behavior is wrong, because even visually
you can't _find_ the connection info mixed in with the HTTP response;
my post was just to follow up having found the bug to fix the problem.
The note about the application was just background of how I found it.

For s_client's main purpose (command line manual testing), perhaps
just the BIO_flush(bio) is all that's needed.
