Just as a side note, https.protocols is read by HttpsUrlConnection which feeds 
it down through setEnabledProtocols() on the SSL socket. " 
jdk.tls.client.protocols" is read directly by JSSE and does the same thing...

Another route to try the SSLv2Hello is to hack and recompile the JSSE. It's on 
my agenda to learn to do that if possible without rebuilding the whole JRE 
since for some obscure reason Oracle compiles JSSE with no debug info (and it 
is not included in the srcs distributed with the JRE) on it which makes 
debugging and inspecting local vars really hard...

Maybe writing too fast..

"How do you force Java 8 to use SSLv2Hello?"

As suggested before, by writing your own client OR by trying this hack.
From the JSSE Ref Guide 5, we know how to the customize the protocol ( 
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/guide/security/jsse/JSSERefGuide.html#InstallationAndCustomization
) by setting a system property (https.protocol). Although they are no more 
talking about this in the Ref Guide 8 ( 
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/security/SunProviders.html#SunJSSEProvider
) I would give it a try as I know that the documentation is poorly written.
I suggested 10 years ago a change in the API doc about the enabled protocols, 
and they didn't change anything although they said they would.



"[1] states: " JDK 7-9 enables SSLv2Hello on the server side only.  (Will not 
send, but will accept SSLv2Hellos)""

I believe they mean "by default" as for the client side. Poorly written, 
probably.
