[users@httpd] New install of Apache not accepting client certs

I just upgraded my Apache from 2.4.7 to 2.4.9 and now my clients' cert
give me a "server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the
server name" error and it serves the system cert instead which fails
because it doesn't match the domain.  Here is an example (sanitized)
entry in my httpd.conf.  Any ideas?  I am reverting to 2.4.7 in the
meantime.

<VirtualHost 256.256.256.256:443>
    ServerName wwws.example.com
    DocumentRoot /u/WEB/user
    ServerAdmin webmaster@vex.net
    SuexecUserGroup user user
 
    Include /VEX/templates/www/httpd-ssl.conf
    SSLCertificateFile /VEX/certs/wwws.example.com.cert
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/certs/wwws.example.com.key
</VirtualHost>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

/VEX/templates/www/httpd-ssl.conf contains this:

SSLEngine on
 
<Files ~ "\.(cgi|shtml|phtml|php3?)$">
    SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
</Files>
 
SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \
         nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \
         downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0

Running your site through this tool might help...

     https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/index.html

And... Make sure your host still points to the exact same IP address.

Likely many of the SSL certificate checkers will help. Just google...
