Do not work around a security flaw in the SSL3 and TLS1.0 protocols known as
BEAST. If this option is not used, the SSL layer may use workarounds known to
cause interoperability problems with some older SSL implementations.
**WARNING**: this option loosens the SSL security, and by using this flag you
ask for exactly that.
