But ONLY if the server correctly negotiates the connection. This should only effect sites that close the initial connection due to not understanding TLS 1.2. A quick test connecting to a RHEL5 server over HTTPS with Firefox 38 shows it has established a TLS 1.0 connection so this should not really effect CentOS 5.
