Migrating to XML_RPC - SSL question

Hi, I'm migrating to XML_RPC from the original phpxmlrpc 1.0.99 by Edd Dumbill. Mostly it has been easy, with just the method names needing changing. However, I sometimes use SSL and with the old library I used the method: xmlrpc_client->setSSLVerifyPeer(0) This was ultimately passed through to cURL and gave some fine-grained control over how the SSL interaction took place. There doesn't seem to be an equivalent of this in the PEAR version, and I wonder what its default behaviour is? Is there a plan to add this functionality back in, or is there a reason why it is not needed? Thanks for any clarification anyone can offer. I don't want to cut over to the new version without fully understanding the implications. Thanks, Jeff
