The Context.set_verify docstring says:

mode - The verify mode, this is either
SSL_VERIFY_NONE or
SSL_VERIFY_PEER combined with
possible other flags

The constants are however named VERIFY_NONE and
VERIFY_PEER.

It would be very helpful if the documentation says what
kind of verification is performed if the set_verify()
method isn't called.

    I've fixed the VERIFY_NONE/VERIFY_PEER issue in my fork of pyOpenSSL at http://launchpad.net/pyopenssl. The changeset is revision 32. I didn't add clarification for the default behavior yet, though.
