Just installed the libwww-curl-perl_4.09-1+b1_i386.deb package from
Debian and the authentication didn't work, with the exact same error
message of 4.07. Reverted back to 4.05 and it worked again, with the
exact same debug information also. Here, again, is the authentication
that worked:

* About to connect() to xxxxxx.xxx.xxx.com port 443 (#0)
*   Trying 200.200.200.200... * connected
* Connected to xxxxxx.xxx.xxx.com (200.200.200.200) port 443 (#0)

Using ldd on 4.09's Curl.so, the libraries are identical to 4.07, which
confirmed my suspicion that 4.09 is also compiled without libssl. So, I
still think that for this authentication to work we need libssl back
onto libwww-curl-perl.

libwww-curl-perl is compiled without libssl, which breaks functionality
