        The RSA premaster secret includes a protocol version number. The specification says it should be the maximum supported protocol version, but we always send the active protocol version.

        Either option may cause interoperability problems with some servers. We should definitely support the spec compliant behavior, but for compatibility with previous JSSE releases we will keep the old behavior by default (controlled by a system property).

        This is a followup to bug 4615819.
