Theoretically, just getting the Verisign root cert should do the trick. I've never tried that before, but basically, the main cert says it is signed by the intermediate cert which is signed by the Verisign root. As long as the Verisign root is in your keystore, it should work because then you trust that one and everything else is connected... Hmm... Ideas....
In my situation (SSL for a LDAP connect), we needed the intermediate CA cert too even though the root cert was trusted. In theory, you're completely right Ben -- it "should" work. However, for us -- it didn't work in our circumstance.

To eliminate any cert chain issues, I'd import all the certs in the chain just to safe.
