Well, I'll try to help out where possible, though I get nervous when fiddling with something someone has perhaps done for a specific reason. In the case of the sslfile problem, it's not at all clear to me why the code is what it is. It's entirely possible I'm missing something that's completely over my head.
As a show of my hopefully good intentions, I've fixed the context and handshake to look in the context for client certificate settings first. I've also added some convenience functions to Standards.PKCS.Certificates for making it easier to get the right value for the certificate authorities field in context.
Now it appears that the certificate is requested, and sent back to the server, which is a big step in the right direction.

I think that is an area of Pike that is somewhat lacking in caring maintenance, even though the Roxen people of course still tend to the parts they use themselves. IMO, it would be nice of you to improve and extend (and perhaps even document some :-) the API:s there, with extra credit for backwards compatibility.
