Interesting that I am able to accomplish all this with just a
keystore.... my cacerts would not be loaded, I s'pose, on startup (and
I know it is not) because my $JAVA_HOME is the jdk root perhaps..... I
am 99% sure I determined the keystore (not truststore) search
mechanism by walking thru the jdk code in a debugger. So there may be
some legacy stuff in there.
