I tried a few hours later and the page loaded okay.
After some reading I think it has to do with 1) how rigidly Firefox acts in the face of cert chain irregularities & 2) that the site was under heavy load (as indicated by other HN users).
If I'm right, I think Firefox should present more useful error info and have method to bypass - even if method is temp + >1-click.
