I've tried your URL and https://ftp.ecrc.net/ (a box I've established
yesterday with mod_ssl 2.4.3/2.4.4) with all Netscape versions I've installed
on my FreeBSD box and my results were:
https://www.fr.thawte.com/ https://ftp.ecrc.net/
Netscape 2.02 ok ok
Netscape 3.04 ok ok
Netscape 4.08 ok ok
Netscape 4.51 ok ok
Netscape 4.61 ok failed
Netscape 4.7 failed ok
This lets me thinking that it is a bug in the recent Netscape versions. Sure,
it might be caused by the particular SSL protocol details OpenSSL speaks, but
even with other clients (e.g. Lynx+SSL, OpenSSL s_client) both websites work
correctly and I see a correct handshake in the debug outputs. So I don't know
what I can do on the server side for those clients. What do you see in the
server logfiles for those failed connections?
