I reached the following solution:

I never got access to any SSL_*-variables under $_SERVER (not even the
server variables or using another language - or server, php version
and OS), but a workaround for Apache and mod_ssl is to add
        SSLOptions +ExportCertData
to httpd.conf (or .htaccess)

The certificate presented by the client would then be stored in
$_SERVER['SSL_CLIENT_CERT'] (the only SSL_*-variable available,
besides SSL_SERVER_CERT). The data could then be retrieved using
openssl_x509_parse(), e.g.:

<?php
$cert = openssl_x509_parse($_SERVER['SSL_CLIENT_CERT']);
print $cert['subject']['CN'];
?>

I would still like to know why the SSL-variables aren't available, but
I don't think this is a PHP issue.

Just wanted to post my solution for the sake of mail archives :-)
