I can remedy this by checking the checkbox "Use SSL in Console" in the Encryption tab on the Directory Server console. >This seems a strange solution to the problem. Why would disabing anonymous access break console access and why would enabling "Use SSL in Console" fix it?

This is probably not strictly spoken a bug but it would be really "nice" if the error message could tell you that the cert database for the admin console is empty. I am not sure why it what the interdependence is but from my 10 000 feet view it seems not necessary.
What's not necessary?  Note that the admin server and directory server 
have separate cert databases.  Also note that the NSS crypto team is 
working towards a unified system-wide cert db.
