I can third this - nginx + haproxy works extremely well. I wish haproxy
supported SSL directly. I realize it's not within the design goals of
haproxy, but the need for this is out there. Good thing nginx + haproxy
works well enough.

nginx operates very nicely as an SSL offloading device.
I am right now using nginx 0.8.33 (soon to bump up to 0.8.34) and
HAProxy 1.4.2 in production and things work very well for me.

Maybe it's worth a try for you to get along with nginx as stunnel
replacement ?
Its performance is quit good and the config can be held very short,
too for only accepting ssl traffic
and directing it to haproxy.
