There is a list of Netscape issues with PKCS12 publishged at...
http://www.drh-consultancy.demon.co.uk/pkcs12faq.html#nsissues
It doesn't specifically cover this problem but it covers many others and it
may be worth while passing any info on to this site if it is a Netscape
problem.

> Hi, just tried 0.20 on NT4; I like it! I ran into some problems,
> both minor and not-so-minor.
>
> 1. MINOR PROBLEM: The binary distribution is missing the mime.types file,
> so you can't run Apache until you snarf a copy of the file from
> somewhere
> else. No biggy, but it would be nice to have it already there.
>
> 2. WISH-LIST: It'd be nice to have some way to install opensa as an NT
> service
> and simultaneously specify if SSL is turned on or not (it would save
> hacking
> up the httpd.conf file to remove the IfDefine SSLs).
>
> 3. NASTY PROBLEM: Repeated reloads of an SSL connection between Netscape
> and the 0.20 server seem to cause the SSL engine to die and restart.
> This is a serious pain, to say the least.
>
>
> More details:
>
> Client: Navigator 4.08 on Win98, with a valid client certificate.
>
> Server: OpenSA 0.20 on NT4 with a self-signed certificate. PHP4 not
> loaded.
> ASP not loaded. Server is running as an NT service.
>
> Process: - Make a successful SSL connection between client and server
> (the first time Netscape goes through all the steps of dealing
> with the new site certificate).
>
> - Netscape will pop up a window asking you to select a user
> certificate. Sometimes this will work the first time and
> you won't notice a problem. The problem might only appear if
> you reload the page several times (I'm using the default
> top-level
> server page from the 0.20 distribution as a test case). When
> the
> problem does appear, Netscape keeps asking you to select a
> certificate.
>
> - On the server, you'll see a popup window (not always the first
> time,
> sometimes only after the reload attempts) with the following
> message
> (and the addresses don't appear to change):
>
> Apache.exe - Application Error
> The instruction at "0x10030778" referenced memory at
> "0x3152575e".
> The memory could not be "read".
>
> - If I look at the logs, the only indication of a problem is that
> the
> engine.log has added another "You are using mod_ssl under
> Win32"
> warning message.
>
> Notes: I've tested both with and without an SSL session cache, no impact
> on
> the problem either way. I also tested with IE 5 and the same
> client
> certificate; this time I couldn't make the problem appear at all.
> Whatever is going on seems to be specific to Netscape.
>
> Any ideas?
