mod_nss NSS OCSP statements in Apache virtual context are global

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

mod_nss does not seem to provide with VirtualHost context for NSSOCSP statements, but "only" for a global context, except with NSSengine.
If the nss.conf file contains one, single VirtualHost block, then everything works finei with the NSSOCSP statements.

If it contains two VirtualHost blocks listening on two different sockets with two different server certificates, it does not set two different default OCSP responders correctly.
This makes it difficult to set up different VirtualHosts in a nss.conf file for different uses.
