Hi,

The issue is more that Tiaacref.pm isn't intelligent so it doesn't
realize that the selector URL has changed its pointer from http://www5
to https://www3.  Making the change to the hardcoded URL in Tiaacref.pm
essentially will fix the problem.

However, being able to do https over LWP requires installation of
Crypt::SSLeay in Perl or lookup will still fail -- which forces another
dependency into the equation.

So apply the attached diff (which can be done manually easily enough)
and make sure you have Crypt::SSLeay installed and all should be well.

-Kevin
