I fear that might be more effort than I'm able to invest right now, 
given that the problem occurs rather rarely (about once a month 
maybe), and I don't currently have a way to reproduce it other than 
by waiting for some random client that triggers the error.

I have changed my historic (*cough*) lighttpd TLS configuration 
to support only "modern" encryption, which might have the side effect 
of just not permitting any problematic combinations. I'll just wait 
if it happens again now before I take any other action.

Yeah, unfortunately my configuration has a ton of rules, and 
I'm not too keen on rewriting all that. 

(I had one reply on the Fediverse from someone who had seen the 
same effect, just much more often, but they switched to a different 
web server and didn't look for a root cause either.)

Alex.
