I have found that there might be a different length computing
in zlib V1.2.3 (or may be even in 1.2.2). In my opinion the length field
set by zlib is ok. But openssl changes this length field in the
SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG handling => ERROR
(I traced the problem in openssl and zlib under openssl)

Until now I've got only one mail that the error might happen
also with 1.2.2 (4) and 1.2.3 under apache.

I've got also an hint on a restriction on RC4 which might help.
But the restriction might be a problem with my usage scenario.

Nothing more.

I have produced openssl libs without zlib used by my program. 
This works fine. And with flexible ZLIB usage around Openssl 
and zlib level 1 and HTTP-chunking I've got best performance 
--- better than zlib level 6 (default) inside Openssl.
