To answer your questions:
"Doesn't the SSLCertificate parameter for each VH say which cert to use?
Yes, but how does Apache know which VH to get the cert from until it has used a cert to decrypt the SSL?  It just used the first cert in this case.  IP Bases will get you around this.  I said chicken - egg because Apache needs to read a header to know what VH to use but it can't read the header until it picks a vhost and uses the cert to decrypt the message.
As I already pointed out, this is not correct. SNI support has been included in Apache for years as have most browsers (except Windows XP).
