Greg Hanley: it seems the bug was found and will be fixed in the next release of openssl. The reason why it is segfaulting on one machine and not the other is probably the fact that one CPU supports AES-NI and the other not. The problem is in multiple openssl initializations.

If you want to fix it before the official version comes there is a patch: http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Attachment/27712/13787/. Either use the patch or do the 2 small changes manually and recompile.

If you do not want to recompile, try to avoid multiple ssl initializations (e.g. in my case these were the apache mod-ssl and php5-curl), but this is not sure that it helps.
