Comment:

 Due to the switch to [https://github.com/rmccue/requests Requests], I
 suspect this is no longer an issue as it only sets
 `CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST` to `0` specifically when disabling verification.

 Any bugs deeper than that are unfortunately out of our control. The
 upstream [https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/547 cURL issue] was closed
 as palming it off to Apple, but AFAIK no-one has reported it there yet. I
 have no way of knowing if it's fixed in recent OSX's either.

 Either way, I'm marking this as invalid, if it's still an issue it needs
 to be chased up with cURL on the above ticket or reproduced under Requests
 and a bug filed there.
