I agree that changing a default to something less secure is not something to do 
lightly, however I think forcing a check that is explicitly disabled is a bug 
and can be counter productive security wise.

People who don't have time to look at the stdlib code, and file bug like this 
are likely to react with "fuck it, I'll use plain HTTP".

By the way, my use case is precisely xmlrpc.
