*that* is going to be much more awful to fix.

You might get away with setting the clock on the server back a month or
so ("still in the validity period") and then replace all certs of 
incoming clients, using the *new* server side cert (so clients with a 
correct time see something that is valid for them).

I'm not fully sure whether that hack works, though, or whether there
is a timestamp in the SSL handshake.

When I had to do that, I was lucky in that the client had a OpenWRT based
device that lost it's time upon powercycle anyway, and came up a few 
month earlier...
