I haven't had a chance to look at this yet -- have been *really* busy. It may be related to the
problems surrounding the attempted fix for https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=41631 that has been
haunting me, although those changes were supposed to be held out from the 5.6 branch.

Anyway, will try to find time ASAP to work it out. Thanks for the report.

I can reproduce this as well.

Daniel, this feels like something you probably know about. Can you have a look, please?

Description:
------------
Downloading any content over HTTPS with the build-in stream-mechanism does not work as expected with
some servers (e.g. Apache 2.4 mod_itk mod_ssl).
The process always blocks until the connection timeout occurs. The return value is correct, however,
it takes a long time.

Fetching the same URL with Curl or by bare HTTP works fine.
It affects all versions of PHP.


Test script:
---------------
<?php

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://www.ec-elements.com/sitemap.xml');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$t1 = microtime(true);
$output1 = curl_exec($ch);
$t2 = microtime(true);
echo "curl_exec: ".($t2-$t1)." s\n";

$t1 = microtime(true);
$output2 = file_get_contents('https://www.ec-elements.com/sitemap.xml');
$t2 = microtime(true);
echo "file_get_contents: ".($t2-$t1)." s\n";


Actual result:
--------------
curl_exec: 0.11854910850525 s
file_get_contents: 60.250888824463 s
