Well, fascinating, except that I didn't get any warnings about insecure 
connections from either Safari or Firefox.  I might also mention that I have an 
old machine with MacOS 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.7 installed, and I can get to 
bugreporter from it, also with no warnings about insecure connections.

It's probably because Apple's not keeping their own certificate up to date.

See, security's a good thing!

Works for me after bypassing that alert on Safari 5.1.7.

>From Firefox:

This Connection is Untrusted
         
You have asked Firefox to connect securely to bugreporter.apple.com, but we 
can't confirm that your connection is secure.

Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted 
identification to prove that you are going to the right place. 

However, this site's identity can't be verified.

 What Should I Do?
          
If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean 
that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.
            
bugreporter.apple.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided.
The certificate is only valid for bugreport.apple.com

(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)
