HTTPS connect errors with 7.9.1 on Linux

Greetings,

Environment:
Red Hat Linux 6.2, 2.2.19 kernel, Intel
curl 7.9.1 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl 7.9.1 (OpenSSL 0.9.6b)

I have an application which uses curl (not libcurl) to communicate
with a site via HTTPS. Since upgrading to curl 7.9.1 from 7.8.1 I have
seen a number of the HTTPS connections fail with odd error messages. The
connections failing are due to the site I'm connecting to, but the error
messages are not as clear about this as they once were. As far as I can
tell, curl is not misbehaving (again, I feel it is the remote site) so
this is simply a bug report. Please let me know if there is other data
you'd like to investigate the problem.

Here is a sample of the error messages I've seen with 7.9.1:
