Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

When a server receives a client initiated renegotiation and interleaved Application Data with Handshake messages in any of the subsequent handshakes, the connection is aborted with "unexpected record" error on the server side. This causes applications like PostgreSQL JDBC driver to be incompatible with PostgreSQL.
