[pkg-lighttpd] Bug#474951: lighttpd: Extremely high load with HTTPS sites after update

[Matthias Kellermann]

Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.13-4etch7
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

After upgrading lighttpd from 1.4.13-4etch6 to 1.4.13-4etch7 I got the
following error messages in error.log when opening a HTTPS site with a
self-signed SSL certificate:

2008-04-08 08:38:05: (connections.c.1649) SSL: 5
error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)

The load on the system rises extremely high so the whole system gets
unusable and I have to stop lighttpd. Switching back to 1.4.13-4etch6
fixes the problem. This happened on several Etch machines.
