Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy development). Epiphany package version
2.21.92-0ubuntu1

If I visit https://users.puzzling.org/users/mary/private/logs/friends/,
which presents a certificate for *.puzzling.org signed by my personal
CA, Epiphany simply loads a Blank Page: HTML rendering area is blank,
title is "Blank Page". (Expected behaviour is to get a login box, since
that URL is protected by HTTP Basic Auth.)

The same thing happens if the site presents a certificate with the wrong
CN (still signed by my personal CA). However, if the site presents a
certificate for exactly the right CN "users.puzzling.org" (still signed
by my personal CA), Epiphany will load it.

Firefox 2 and 3 both load all versions, although for a mismatched CN
they warn first.
