I've installed circus myself and now I understand the problem. circusd
uses following code:

#!/usr/bin/python
# EASY-INSTALL-ENTRY-SCRIPT: 'circus==0.13.0','console_scripts','circusd'
__requires__ = 'circus==0.13.0'
import sys
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point

if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.exit(
        load_entry_point('circus==0.13.0', 'console_scripts', 'circusd')()
    )

This code checks package requirements of all needed Python packages at
run-time. Tornado itself is working without backports.ssl-* package
(just enabling PYTHON SSH support is sufficient). In Python 3.4 there
are no problems, as backports.ssl-* is required only for Python < 3.2
(tornado's setup.py).

My suggestion is to enable
BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON_BACKPORTS_SSL_MATCH_HOSTNAME for Python2 only and
enable both it and certify when selecting tornado. What do you think
about this?
