the mechanisms for using client certificates depend on the SSL module
you're using. in Net::SSLeay for example, you'd have to add certificates
and private keys to the SSL context. this can also be accomplished using
set_server_cert_and_key (confusingly enough). if you're using
IO::Socket::SSL, then you'd just add SSL_use_cert, SSL_key_file and
SSL_cert_file arguments to the context_init call.
