Yes, you can either put several key pairs in the file referenced by
SSLProxyMachineCertificateFile, or you can use a directory of files
(each containing a key pair) with SSLProxyMachineCertificatePath; all
files in the specified directory are loaded.

If you have configured the origin server to send a list of CA names in
the client certificate request, mod_ssl will then try to pick an
appropriate client cert which was issued by one of the CA names it
receives. (there are some useful debugging messages at "SSLLogLevel
debug")

Yep, these directives work in mod_ssl/2.8 for Apache 1.3, though were
never documented.

Yes, it's been cut'n'pasted badly; you could report a documentation bug
on that at http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/
