Hi, would it be possible to implement a slightly more general X500 name compare in OpenSSL ? Currently OpenSSL accepts only strings with the same encoding type (i.e. OpenSSL compares only PRINTABLE with PRINTABLE and not PRINTABLE with T61STRING, although every PRINTABLE string is also a T61STRING). Could OpenSSL be modified (see attached patch) to allow a comparison between PRINTABLE and T61STRING, IA5STRING or UTF8STRING (<=> with supersets of PRINTABLE) ? Comments are welcome.
