 The WP_Http_Streams doesn't check for all it's prerequisites before saying
 it can process HTTPS request.

 It seems to be common for the openssl extension to no be loaded.

 Example Warnings:

 {{{
 [21-Feb-2011 08:06:48] PHP Warning:  fopen() [<a
 href='function.fopen'>function.fopen</a>]: Unable to find the wrapper
 &quot;https&quot; - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?
 in .../wp-includes/class-http.php on line 1063
 [21-Feb-2011 08:06:48] PHP Warning:  fopen(https://example.com/feed/) [<a
 href='function.fopen'>function.fopen</a>]: failed to open stream: No such
 file or directory in .../wp-includes/class-http.php on line 1063
 }}}

 We need to at least check: {{{extension_loaded( 'openssl' )}}}
