Thanks for the response, but the FAQ is addressing a different situation
than what I had in mind.

Currently I have a couple of virtual hosts on my machine. They all work
fine. When I access the main server through https, it works fine, but
when I try to access one of the virtual hosts through https it doesn't
work.

Here's what happens:

I have two virtual hosts. I can go to http://bob and get a page that
says, "This is Bob!". I can go to http://frank and get a page that says,
"This is Frank!". No surpise yet -- it's the whole point of virtual
hosts. When I go to https://bob I get "This is Bob!" as expected, BUT
when I go to https://frank I still get "This is Bob!". This is the
situation that I was referring to.

In this case I don't see how the issue outlined in the FAQ is a problem
since there is no need to read any SSL configuration from a virtual host
config before having the Host: header. All the SSL config is in the main
conf, not in the virtual host containers.
