Your certificate doesn't appear to have any SubjectAltName extensions.
I'm fairly sure that our implementation only checks
pkinit_kdc_hostname against the dnsName SubjectAltName extensions,
which explains the "no certhosts" debugging message.  (The "certhosts"
comparison is also case-sensitive, but that could be a different issue
that this situation doesn't allow to become relevant.)

I think it also does not check against the CommonName part of the
Subject.  It's not completely clear to me from RFC 4556 whether
matching pkinit_kdc_hostname against the CommonName of the KDC
certificate is appropriate.  We will consider changing the existing
behavior, but I would first like to confirm that checking the
CommonName in this situation does not cause any additional
vulnerabilities.

Is this certificate one that you created for the purposes of using
PKINIT, or did you create it for some other purpose first?  What
method did you use to create this certificate?

Thanks.
