[CentOS] SSLv3 vunerability and Nautilus

CentOS-6.5
Apache httpd-2.2.15

We have a webdav folder accessible only by https.   In conformance with the
advisory we removed SSLv3 from the SSLProtocol directive of the Apache server
on that webdav host, so that it now looks like this:

SSLProtocol +TLSv1

Now I cannot connect to the webdav service from my gnome desktop.  When I open
the webdav folder I get a window with the following error message instead of
the folder:

Could not display "davs://user@webdav.domain.tld/".
Error: HTTP Error: Connection terminated unexpectedly
Please select another viewer and try again.

As I was using this folder today before the change in protocol on the server I
am fairly confident that the removal of SSLv3 is the likely cause.  Is there
any way to configure the Nautilus browser in CentOS-6.5 to use TLSv1 instead?
