New submission from Andreas Hasenack:
I was trying to use xmlrpclib.ServerProxy() with https and client
certificate validation (I know httplib doesn't do server certificate
validation yet). I found no way to pass on host/uri as a
(host,x509_dict) tuple as the connection methods support, so I came up
with this patch.
