How do I get past MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT and add a certificate exception?

Since updating to Firefox Mobile 16.0.2 I have not been able to access my OpenWrt router configuration pages. Firefox shows the "Untrusted Connection" page with MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT in the technical details. If I expand the "I understand the risks" section and select "Add permanent exception" all the appears to happen is that the "Untrusted Connection" page is redisplayed.

I created a PEM version of the certificate and jumped through all the hoops to get Firefox to dowload it from apache. Firefox said that the certificate had been succesfully installed.

However, this made no difference. On trying to access the site the same MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_SELF_SIGNED_CERT error was displayed. This is driving me nuts. Acessing the site works fine on Desktop Firefox, and was working until recently on my tablet.

This is the rather strange content of the default OpenWrt uhttpd certificate.
