In 7.3 the SSL protocol switched from SSLv2 to TLSv1. If the server
method is switched to SSLv23_method it will be backwords compatable with
pre-7.3 clients without sacrificing the added security of TLSv1 for
newer stuff. There

As suggested, I intend to create a 'CoerceToDomain' node in the
expression tree rather than attempting to apply the create the
constraints tests immediately.
1. Create a new function in the executor to handle domain coercions:
