+<p><em>x509</em> specifies a component of an X.509 DN; one of
+<code>C,ST,L,O,OU,CN,T,I,G,S,D,UID,Email</code>.  In Apache 2.1 and
+later, <em>x509</em> may also include a numeric <code>_n</code>
+suffix.  If the DN in question contains multiple attributes of the
+same name, this suffix is used as an index to select a particular
+attribute.  For example, where the server certificate subject DN
+included two OU fields, <code>SSL_SERVER_S_DN_OU_0</code> and
+<code>SSL_SERVER_S_DN_OU_1</code> could be used to reference each.</p>
