I'm trying to solve a reproducible memory leak that manifests itself

Valgrind, plus our own research, points to a possible memory leak in
crypto/comp/c_zlib.c in libssl0.9.8g.

We see:
        struct zlib_state *state = -> (struct zlib_state
*)OPENSSL_malloc(sizeof(struct zlib_state));
allocating the data.

However, it does not seem that a zlib_stateful_free_ex_data() is called
to free it.

I guess you are hit by what is already fixed in the httpd trunk in r654119:
