I created a self signed certificate and used it to sign a server's
certificate. I put root in the client's store, using a custom X509_LOOKUP,
overriding the get_by_subject() method.
I see that I'm indeed returning the correct certificate in the return object
from  get_by_subject() and also a return value of X509_LU_X509. I also
compared the issuer name of the server certificate and the subject name of
the root certificate by printing then using X509_NAME_print_ex().

But what seems to be failing is X509_NAME_cmp(). I saw that the
canon_enclen's of the root and server were different by 12 bytes.

To be clear, I'm getting the server certificate (which the server loads from
a PEM file) during the SSL handshake, while the root certificate was loaded
from a DER file.

I'm also attaching the certificates in question. The password for the
Server.pem file is 'particle'.

Any clues?
