--- Comment #9 from Petr Pisar <ppisar at redhat.com> ---
Thank you for the report. However there are two mistakes:

(1) The IO::Socket::SSL::new option is "SSL_verifycn_scheme", not
"SSL_verifycn_schema". Thus you could not find it in the documentation.

(2) The 6.04-3 behavior was flawed. As you can read in the upstream bug report,
the "SSL_verify_mode" option is about checking hostname. It's not intended to
control certificate validation. The same applies to
"PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME" environment variable. 6.04-4 has restored the
behavior which presented before 6.04.
