  I'm probably doing this completely wrong, but this fails:

(WebClient httpGet: 'https://login.agni.lindenlab.com/cgi-bin/login.cgi')

Error: primitiveSSLCreateFailed/


I've got the latest SqueakSSL package and plugin installed, and the 
latest webclient on Squeak 4.1 VM.

The URL doesn't return a valid certificate anyway, its just an xml-rpc 
portal for getting a login URL via an encrypted connection.
