Hi Steve,

that's excellent! If I am not mistaken, this is exactly what one would
also need in order to use the pubkey in individually trusted
S/MIME-Certs when the issuing CA is categorically untrusted. One could
simply create a cert for local use in encryption/signature-validation
from one's own trusty CA.

Are there any plans to include your patch in vanilla openssl anytime soon?

Thanks,
Mike
