Новый патч.  На этот раз renegotiation запрещён только для 
серверных соединений.

Для клиентских соединений не трогаем, ибо это без нужды ломает 
proxy_pass на https бекенды сконфигурированные для запроса 
сертификатов через renegotiation (e.g. Apache + per-location 
SSLVerifyClient).  Без нужды - потому как сертификат бекенда nginx 
всё равно не проверяет.

Следует иметь ввиду что использование openssl 0.9.8l на любой из 
сторон подобные конфигурации так или иначе сломает.

Disable SSL renegotiation (CVE-2009-3555).

It was recently discovered that SSL and TLS are vulnerable to
man-in-the-middle attacks due to renegotiation feature (see
http://extendedsubset.com/?p=8).

Most recent version of openssl (0.9.8l) disables renegotiation unless
explicitly enabled by application (not recommended though).  Since nginx
doesn't require renegotiation to work - try to disable it for older
openssl versions too.

Note that openssl (up to most recent 0.9.8l) doesn't handle disabled
renegotiation gracefully (i.e. goes to an unconsistent state when client
asks for renegotiation instead of sending back NO_RENEGOTIATION alert)
and we have to explicitly drop connection if we detect renegotiation
attempt.
