Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your reply.

I'm not well versed on the details of the TSVN code, when you mean
library, are you referring to higher level libraries or core libraries
such as the OpenSSL.

I assume TSVN uses OpenSSL, is this right? And would this be solely
responsible for the issue noted above, or would there be some other
library/code that could also affect this?

Best regards,

Matt
