It means that some of the alternative chains that can be used to
validate the chain will no longer work. Depending on the root
store this might mean the end entity cert can or can't be
validated anymore. As I understand this, it currently doesn't
have any impact on things using the (default) Mozilla root store,
but it might have if the StartCom and Wosign roots were removed. I
can't remember if there were other cross signatutures.
