Bug#747225: libwww-perl: ignores SSL_verifycn_scheme in ssl_opts

Package: libwww-perl
Version: 6.06-1

The attached test scripts tries to connect to 
https://encrypted.google.com/ twice: once with default options, and once 
with such SSL_verifycn_scheme in ssl_opts that disallows wildcards in CN 
or subjectAltName.

The connection should fail in the latter case, because 
encrypted.google.com have only "*.google.com" in both of these fields 
(plus some other stuff in subjectAltName that wouldn't match anyway).

But both connection succeed:

$ perl test.pl
200 OK
200 OK


As a work-around, I can use IO::Socket::SSL::set_args_filter_hack(), but 
it really should work out of the box.
