I believe this is related to AES-NI. For testing, could you please try
setting the following environment variable to disable AES-NI before
launching your irc client from the command line:

export OPENSSL_ia32cap=~0x200000200000000

  SSL read error: decryption failed or bad record mac

Bug description:
  I have Ubuntu-12.10/irssi 0.8.15/libssl 1.0.1c-3. After connecting
  successfully to an SSL IRC server and joining some channel on it, I get
  the error

  read error: decryption failed or bad record mac

  after which the connection terminates. I didn't have any problem with
  this before, the error started to occur only yesterday after an Ubuntu
  security update from libssl 1.0.1c-3ubuntu2 to 1.0.1c-3ubuntu2.1. Using
  the version 1.0.1c-3ubuntu2 of libssl and libcrypto gets rid of the
  problem.
