Early Windows TLS 1.2 implementations have an issue during key exchange with OpenSSL implementations that cause negotiation to fail with the error "the buffer supplied to a function was too small." This is a transient error on the connection, so when that error is received, retry up to 5 times to create a connection to the remote server before actually giving up.

We put a bandaid on our CI servers by disabling DHE. This is good for our build servers, but end-users will still see this problem if they are running older versions of Windows.
