Well, I cleaned that up, too.

That you got this same command to work implies you have a different
set of CAs than I.

His point (someone please correct me, if neccessary) is that without
what he considers a reasonable set of trusted CAs in place, SSL under
FreeBSD is 'broken'.

I interpret this thread now to be a debate of terms 'reasonable'
and 'trusted', and further, who's responsibility is it to populate
that list of CAs on his machine.
