Comment #22 on issue 4150 by [email protected]: Security: SwissSign Root  
marked for EV
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=4150

I meant that the patch chrome-ev.patch turns off the
*certificate policy* checking of the EV subordinate CA
certificates.

EV certificate chains should be held to a higher standard.
The certificate chain of https://testevg2.swisssign.net/
contains conflicting certificatePolicies extensions, so it
fails even the regular certificate policy checking.  Unless
the CA/Browser Forum says we should ignore the conflicting
certificatePolicies extensions of the root and the end entity
certificates, we can't show the EV status for that certificate
chain

I'd be interested in finding out if Internet Explorer or
Firefox will show the EV status for https://testevg2.swisssign.net/.
