This was not present in the 2.0.28 beta, but it or an equivalent should be present in 2.0 final when it is released (it might even be in the next beta, but it hasn't been checked into CVS yet). In the meanwhile, you should be able to build a CSR with Apache 1.3+mod_ssl (where make certificate _does_ work) and use the signed certificate you get back from the CA with 2.0.28 with no trouble. You could also generate the CSR using OpenSSL by hand, but it's probably easier to just temporarily grab a copy of Apache 1.3 and generate your keys and CSR [make sure to copy them somewhere before you delete your temporary copy of 1.3!].
