Hello,

We upgraded to openssl-0.9.7d from 0.9.6c to implement a PKI X509 certificate logon 
using openssh (with Roumen's X509 patch). One of the problems we faced was the 
disappearance of one of the representation for object X509-12 : "title". As the diff 
below shows, there have been some changes in objects.txt that actually _removed_ 
things :

< X509 12                       : T                     : title
< X509 13                       : D                     : description
---
> X509 12                       :                       : title
> X509 13                       :                       : description

As a result, obviously, since our certificates use the "T=....." field, it did not 
work anymore.
My question is : since the missing "T" obviously does not conflict with any other 
field, and is widely used nowadays as a X509 attribute, would it not make sense to 
reinstate it in objects.txt ? 

Thanks for your advice,

Regards

Sergio.
