Hi Jeremy.
I have found the following command useful in troubleshooting certificate
verification issues.
openssl s_client -connect serverhostname:443 -showcerts

According to my research Thawte isn't using an intermediate CA, so you
shouldn't be encountering a chaining issue where an intermediate CA cert
needs be  specified using the SSLCertificateChainFile directive.

Anyway run the command above and you can examine the chains to validate
by hand.
You can probably safely post the output to the list for further help.
