OK, I'm going to do the following:

1. Regenerate the certificates I specified using "examples.com" for
consistency's sake.

2. If 1 goes OK, I will regenerate all of them with "example.com".  I
don't have a Diffie-Hellman implementation, but that shouldn't be
relevant -- the public key is opaque for the purpose of generating the
certificate, so it is unlikely that I will mess it up.

The only risk with 2 is that I break something in the re-encoding
process (possible).  Let me see how carefully I can tinker with their
brains ;).
