LibreSSL doesn't support compression.  Please open a bug upstream if you require it or turn it off in your configuration.

The error appears because "SSLCompression off" is set in 40_mod_ssl.conf.
Whether or not the SSL implementation supports compression, turning it off in configuration should't cause this error.
