You don't need this per se. FWIW, I have my certs via GoDaddy at this point in time.

Well, since any of my masters has yet to fail me in more than 3 years, I've never had to deal with *anything*, basically. (Yes, I tried just about everything in my 'lab setup') I don't use a load-balancing, but a failover setup. AFAIAC, one set of carp hosts is one server, therefore I need one cert, which I configure on each individual carp host. For me, that's end of story. I am a really, really cheap bastard... Nico ;-)
