there was never a time when nginx supported sni and apache did not. Nginx requires an openssl version that supports sni -- that was added in 0.9.8f on Oct 2007 (if you compiled openssl manually to enable it), and was enabled by default in 0.9.8j on Jan 2009. Apache supported SNI using mod_gnutls since 2005; and in 2.2.12 (July 2009) using openssl.

Technically correct, however for users that install from OS packages it's possible that they're getting a version of nginx that had SNI enabled and a version of Apache that did not.
