501 error on push to https?

Hi, Andrew.

I've got the same problem with Apache running on Solaris at a shared
host.  The common thread might be our non-default SSL certs: you're
using a self-signed one, and I'm using a cheesy wildcard one from my
host.

On the client side, I get a 501 on Windows, even just doing an hg
clone from the https://... URL to my desktop.  The situation on OS X
is much scarier: hg push prompts me for a user name and password (as
it should), and then appears to send them _in the clear_ to the server
over plain HTTP -- the response comes back, "ssl required."

Meanwhile, I can browse the repository just fine in any Web browser: I
get properly warned about the certificate, my login is sent over
HTTPS, and so on.
