None that I'm aware of. leftsendcert=ifasked was the policy ever since.

As the default policy is "ifasked", this most likely implies that your
server does not send a certificate request. By default certificate
requests are sent; what is your rightsendcert setting on the server?

charon logs the certificates and certificate requests sent/received
during the exchange, that should help in analyzing what is missing.
