WinSSL in Windows XP is not able to connect to servers that no longer
Schannel in Windows XP is not able to connect to servers that no longer

Some SSL backends may do certificate revocation checks (CRL, OCSP, etc)
depending on the OS or build configuration. The --ssl-no-revoke option was
introduced in 7.44.0 to disable revocation checking but currently is only
supported for WinSSL (the native Windows SSL library), with an exception in
the case of Windows' Untrusted Publishers blacklist which it seems can't be
bypassed. This option may have broader support to accommodate other SSL
supported for Schannel (the native Windows SSL library), with an exception
in the case of Windows' Untrusted Publishers blacklist which it seems can't
be bypassed. This option may have broader support to accommodate other SSL
backends in the future.
