Remember that client data only gets decrypted after the SSL session is established. That means you can only use such data inside an SSL VH. Is this where you have these directives?

If nothing is written to the rewrite log, then probably the RewriteCond is false. Increase the log level to 9 and maybe it will tell you (I don't know).

Try adding the %{FORWARD_CERT} to the ordinary logfile to see if it contains anything (see CustomLog for details).
