Did your test with IE5.0 turned out to be a succes?  

I have looked into this problem for NS and IE5.0, most desirable would be a
url (crl distribution point) that resides in the certificate itself. 
However, it is my experience the certificate implementation in each browser
(IE5.0, NS4.7 and Opera4.6) just sucks :(.

They all contain some of the desired functionality but none of them have
*all* desired functionality.  Amongst them crl verification.  So no, we
don't have an idea on how to do this generic for all widely used browsers :(
