I have tried running iceweasel in safe mode, on a new user (rm -rf
..mozilla), and still, I can reproduce the following behaviour:

I go to https://myserver.mydomain.com -> it works ok. When I go to
https://myserver.mydomain.com/userspace
(where I should be authenticated with my personal certificate) I get the
message:

Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to myserver.mydomain.com.
    *   The page you are trying to view can not be shown because the
    * authenticity of the received data could not be verified.

    *   Please contact the web site owners to inform them of this problem.
    * Alternatively, use the command found in the help menu to report this
    * broken site.

I downloaded from mozilla.com the firefox 3.5.6 binary and run it -> it
works OK. First, the difference in behaviour betweeen firefox 3.5.6 and
iceweasel 3.5.6 is a bit strange.

I keep my debian testing system regularly updated, and this must have
happened about a month ago - maybe sooner.

Thanks again!

worked as a temporary solution. I searched for bugs containing 'certificate' in the subject before I submitted the bug with reportbug, but I did not find #561918.
