Nan,

Thanks so much for your help.  This was in fact the issue.  I shut down the
puppet master, backed up the /var/lib/puppet/ssl directory, and ran "puppet
master -v --ca_name="Puppet CA puppet.bar.com".  After that ran, I checked
the SSL certs using the openssl command and things looked as expected.  I
was then able to start the puppet master withing apache/passenger and after
re-signing certificates for the clients, they're able to run against the
passenger-enclosed puppet master.
