Debian indeed has a history of making strange changes to OpenSSL and thus 
breaking compatibility with the upstream package.  I honestly don't think it is

Regardless of Debian, we will update the test certificates to use sha256.

This is a separate issue.  I believe I manged to fix it.  Please try:

I think the best way is wait a few days for the updated upstream stunnel 
package, and then proceed with packaging it.  Would it be okay with you?
