Ok, nothing to do with any of that. Deep inside OpenSSL, there is a call to
gmtime_r. Deep somewhere in hell (I hope), someone decided that LynxOS'
gmtime_r functions would have its arguments *reversed*. REVERSED. I 
guess they
were going for SIXPO complience. So that call would write rubbish in the 
stack,
hence no returning from the call and segfault instead.

So, nothing to do with stunnel after all. Thanks for the support anyway! :)
