Umm, any reason? TLSv1 is a newer SSLv3 in general, and the problems fixed
by TLSv1.1+ affect SSLv3 too.

AFAIK yes, but there lots of things about TLS I don't know.

I believe there's a Java system prop that turns on debugging for SSL in
the JVM. Daniel had me turn that on once to track down the problem with
ldaps name verification, but I don't recall it offhand.
