[Bug 1068854] Re: Support option to disable TLS compression to protect against CRIME attack

Note that Red Hat already supports a workaround [0] that allows for
disabling zlib at the OpenSSL layer, which prevents TLS compression
working in Apache. As far as I am aware, no such option exists for
Ubuntu, leaving users vulnerable until a new package is available.
