I am confused about how to check a key usage extension. I see that ca_check
"calls" ku_reject, which uses the X509 ex_flags element.

Is it necessary to use the ku_reject method or is it possible to call
d2i_ASN1_BIT_STRING (to decode the KeyUsage BIT STRING) and then
ASN1_BIT_STRING_get_bit to check specific bits?

I am guessing there is a "history lesson" here. Does anyone know?
