There's a potential problematic practice here, which is "long time
period between CRL issuance".  I'm seeing issuance dates of October 6,
2008, with the next updates to be expected at April 4, 2009.  I expect
this is 180 days, though I don't feel like counting through my
calendar to verify that.

Neither of the CRLs show any currently-revoked certificates.  This is
NOT necessarily a failure of the CA's CRL mechanism, though, since
they very easily could have no unexpired certificates which were
revoked at the time the CRL was generated.

Since I'm much more a guru with openssl than with NSS, I'll just post
its output regarding the CRLs:
