commit f4d1fb776955187a35c3ee36d4413871917c3138
Author: Emilia Kasper <emilia at openssl.org>
Date:   Wed May 20 15:47:51 2015 +0200

    Only support >= 256-bit elliptic curves with ecdh_auto (server) or by default (client).
    
    Also reorder preferences to prefer prime curves to binary curves, and P-256 to everything else.
    
    The result:
    
    $ openssl s_server -named_curves "auto"
    
    This command will negotiate an ECDHE ciphersuite with P-256:
    
    $ openssl s_client
    
    This command will negotiate P-384:
    
    $ openssl s_client -curves "P-384"
    
    This command will not negotiate ECDHE because P-224 is disabled with "auto":
    
    $ openssl s_client -curves "P-224"

+     'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported

   *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 768 bits.
