Hello. My two centimes worth.

Although I use OpenSSL in test, I've never used altnames - sorry.

In prod we use a comercial CA.  I find that if I want to use one or more 
altname(s) I must also specify the FQDN in the list of altnames.

        Common Name: *
        wiki*.a.b
        Alternate Name (DNS):*
        wiki*.a.b*
        wikisso*.a.b

Cdlt, Dave
