Comment (by dluke@…):

 Replying to [comment:1 ryandesign@…]:
 > I am not aware of a way we could fix this. I thought the problem was
 that Apple is not updating the SSL certificates for Leopard anymore, and
 it's not a job that we can really take over from Apple.

 Sounds like there is also a problem with compatibility between modern ssl
 configs and the really-old openssl that shipped with 10.5.

 I would be in favor of explicitly dropping support for OS X releases that
 are no longer being updated by Apple.
