I finally tracked down why my system was failing to initialize SSL properly.
I had not setup SSLSessionCache. As soon as I recompiled (installing
mm_1.0.9) and setup the SSLSessionCache my system stopped having troubles
during restart.
Just though some of you may like to know. In case someone in the future
has a similar problem
-Jason
Now, if we could only figure out the "interrupted by system" issue :)
