*sigh* False alarm. I attached strace to the httpd processes and saw that some bit of code gives up immediately when it trips over a broken symlink in the directory that holds SSL root certificates. Regenerating the links (via update-ca-certificates -- this is on Gentoo Linux) cured that problem, and things are working again. Now I need to track down just which layer of software (OpenLDAP? OpenSSL? HTTPD?) is failing to report why it gave up. -- Mark H.
