This looks like a renegotiation problem.
Could you run the following two statements in a psql session:
SET ssl_renegotiation_limit='3kB';
SELECT repeat('0123456789', 900)";
and see if it triggers the problem?
If you set "ssl_renegotiation_limit" to 0, either on the server on using the PGOPTIONS
environment variable on the client side, does the problem go away?
Since you upgraded OpenSSL on one end (you didn't tell us on which), maybe the
problem is the age of the OpenSSL library on the other side ---
if one side follows RFC 5746 and the other doesn't (because it is pre-2010)
you can end up with problems like that.
If my guess is correct, the solution would be to upgrade OpenSSL on the other end too.
And while you are at it, upgrade to PostgreSQL 9.4 if your data are important for you.
