Netscape, when using export ciphers, will accept a 1024 bit temporary
RSA key. It is supposed to only accept 512.

+If Netscape connects to a server which requests a client certificate
+it will frequently hang after the user has selected one and never
+complete the connection. Hitting "Stop" and reload fixes this and
+all subsequent connections work fine. This appears to be because
+Netscape wont read any new records in when it is awaiting a server
+done message at this point. The fix is to send the certificate request
+and server done messages in one record.
