This concerns me. Does the leak occur on badly handled disconnects only, or will the leak happen even when the disconnect is handled in an orderly manner?

In order to free up an idle connection stunnel would have to close it.  In many cases connections supposed to be persistent.  The timeout is controlled with TIMEOUTidle option.  The default value is 43200 seconds = 12 hours.

I recompiled 0.9.8r with zlib enabled again, but it's not clear to me
if zlib was actually used in the following run or not. At least there
were no zlib or libz strings in the massif output.

I'll assume it's the OpenSSL issues that were at fault, and then
continue to run with the new lib version. If there is any new
development in the upcoming days, I'll send a follow-up.

I'll appreciate it.
