Or put keepalived in front of 2 or more machines with stud/stunnel/nginx for 
SSL termination and HAProxy for distributing the traffic to all backends.

Keepalived can move a floating IP between multiple machines, and as long as 
each machine can do ssl termination and load balancing, you've got no single 
machine that can cause a failure.

A crude ASCII drawing should illustrate what I mean:

                            /---<machine 1>--\
                           /                  \
<internet>---<floating ip>*-----<machine 2>----*---<all backend servers>
                           \                  /
                            \---<machine 3>--/

just use HAProxy to load balance to multiple stud, with send-proxy on
HAProxy side, and --read-proxy on stud side.
