OK thanks it works fine now. The cause is rather subtle: when OpenSSL
reencodes a BIT STRING it normally preserves the original encoding so
this shouldn't happen. However in the case of a BIT STRING inside a Name
(X509_NAME) structure it didn't due to a bug.
Fix is here:

I confirm that it fixes the issue for me.
Thanks, it looks like I was trying to fix the consequence instead of the
cause :)
