When using RSA encryption, the client occasionally close with a segmentation fault error. No problems when encryption is disabled.

Im using:
- WinXP with Cygwin 5.1
- Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA ver. 0.26
- Mcrypt ver. 2.5.7.0

I suppose the problem is with $rsa variable: segmentation fault is caused by $rsa->size() in ssl_decrypt function.
the fault happens after the first thread quits: after that, $rsa is pointing to null object...

I don't know Perl at all, but I found an empirical solution. Now client works like a charm

I also have this problem. The provided solution worked as well.

I think it is a duplicate of http://sourceforge.net/p/http-tunnel/bugs/11/.
