Uhmm, I was under the impression that if PEM_read_X509() and friends
got a NULL as a second argument, it would create a X509 to contain the
information...
I suspect this is a problem on Windows, because I just tried the above
test program (with NULL as second argument to PEM_read_X509()) on
Linux, and it worked like a charm (I checked with gdb that I really
did get a value back, and that it contained sensible data).
