Ah, that's an invalid OID. The first number must be 0 to 2, and the
second number must be 1 to 40. There are hysteri^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hhistorical
reasons for this...
Anyhow, you have uncovered a bug. It seems like OBJ_create() doesn't
check the return value from a2d_ASN1_OBJECT and thereby fools you into
thinking that everything is OK. I'll correct that.
