The closest thing in that arena is a wildcard certificate from
Thawte -- but that's a wildcard on a single domain.  If you have
multiple domains pointed to the same IP -- they technically can
get it with the default httpsd.conf file from the secure server
packages for the RaQ and RaQ2.  

The problem is the certificate will include the common name
such as www.domain.com and if the cert is pulled for any other
site name on that IP, it will generally result in a pop up
warning window on the client's side.
