SSL3 and compression are not the main issue.
HTTPS in dillo is completely broken because it does not check for domain
name in the certificate.
hg tip has checking code copied from wget and current dillo release has
no code for it at all. It means that Dillo accepts any valid certificate
as a certificate for, let's say, gmail. You can get one from StartSSL
for free and test, it works.
