Hmm. Maybe; I guess most people test PEAP which just uses CA & server
certs, no client certs.
I'm by no means an expert, and Makefile's make my brain hurt, so I could
be misreading it.
Alan - it does look to my untrained eye as if the "client.crt" Makefile
target in /etc/raddb/certs is signing the client key with the server
key. Is this intentional, or a bug?

I don't think so. Again, I think the CRL is signed with the CA key. Of
course, you'll need run your own crl commands, the FreeRadius stuff
doesn't come with that.
