Interestingly (from rfc5929):

      This definition of 'tls-unique' means that a channel's bindings
      data may change over time, which in turn creates a synchronization
      problem should the channel's bindings data change between the time
      that the client initiates authentication with channel binding and
      the time that the server begins to process the client's first
      authentication message.  If that happens, the authentication
      attempt will fail spuriously.

Do you happen to know which API? I see no reference to tls-unique or channel 
binding, in either the OpenSSL website or the latest OpenSSL snapshot.

According to some mailing-list message, we could use SSL_get_finished() and 
SSL_get_peer_finished(), but that still leaves us to figure out what to do with 
the info returned by these functions. It would be nice if there was some 
ready-to-use code (I'm not a crypto expert).
