Drupal 6 authentication on Apache 2 with a Finnish Population Register Centre (VRK) FINeID smart card

Months ago I acquired the Finnish FINeID smart card produced by the Police and Population Register Centre, even though plans about discontinuing it altogether have already been made. In addition to being a traditional identification card, it has a certificate that can be used for both authentication and signing documents – although quite few services actually support it (pretty much the only ones are public sector and Itella NetPosti – one bank did allow it for quite a while, but they discontinued it stating lack of use).
