commit 02db21dfb4d9ea76d83a10df6d46d8b511fcce50
Author: Matt Caswell <matt at openssl.org>

    Don't send an alert if we've just received one
    
    If the record received is for a version that we don't support, previously we
    were sending an alert back. However if the incoming record already looks
    like an alert then probably we shouldn't do that. So suppress an outgoing
    alert if it looks like we've got one incoming.
