Yes with keepalive off all the crashes disappear. I did like you said to
leave Keepalive On and put KeepAlive Off only inside the SSL Virtualhost
section, And no crashes as well. I don't know about just putting the
User-Agent directive as I had crashes even with Mozilla. Ofcourse it's a
workaround but yes, it works.

Seems to be the known problem then.  You have your workaround in your
own answer.  KeepAlive Off.  Of course you'd only want that inside your

<VirtualHost _default_:443>

and there actually is a recommended

     SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \
        nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \
        downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0

which I'd put there instead of the general KeepAlive off.

I don't know whether that still will be required with Apache 2 version
of mod_ssl.

While not perfect, definitely beats using IIS.
