Yes, but only when stunnel is started manually. When started automatically
on system boot, there is usually nobody present to enter the password of
the encrypted private key (except when the key is stored somewhere and
its input provided by some script or program - again a security hole).
This is not a special problem of stunnel but of all SSL-using servers.
