This problem turned out to be down to a setting on a Cisco Local Director
sitting between the outside world and the server. The problem was not down to
any SSL implementation (and was repeatable on several different ones). In case
anyone else has this nightmare, changing:
sticky xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:tcp 1440 ssl
to
sticky xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx::tcp 30 generic
did the trick.
