Whatever process emacs started, I still have the same questions as in my 
original reply.  (a) What happens if you start the process on the 
command line instead of via emacs?  (b) Are you sure that what you're 
seeing is not the expected behavior?

Part of my problem in trying to help is that you haven't said exactly 
what you're doing, except that your emacs session used gnutls in one 
case and that openssl was involved in the other.  Can you give a 
detailed list of steps that someone might try to reproduce?
