In the version of the API that was current at the time I put together my 
1:1 implementation, the result of calling,

  IsolateMessage.newServerSocketMessage(ServerSocket s)

with an SSLServerSocket would have been an IllegalArgumentException. The 
API has changed significantly since then, so I'll leave it to Pete to 
give you the current answer.

No ... the message shouldn't be constructed in the first place.
