Please try the beta for OpenSSL 0.9.6a (available from ftp.openssl.org
or one of the mirrors, http://www.openssl.org/source/mirror.html) and
report if it solves your problem. SSL_peek is known to be broken in
versions up to OpenSSL 0.9.6.
However note that in any case SSL_peek will actually read data from
the underlying socket if it can, just like SSL_read. The difference
between SSL_read and SSL_peek is that the latter will keep decrypted
application data around for later SSL_read (or SSL_peek) requests.
If your goal is to avoid blocking, you have to use non-blocking sockets.
