=begin
The attached file creates an HTTPS connection to gmail.com then loads an RSA public key.

If a private key is loaded the error does not reproduce.

Loading of the public key corrupts the HTTPS connection resulting in the following error:

SSL_read:: no start line (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError)

full output:
