They are not "in the wild" in this context, as the issueing CA in
OpenVPN contexts is typically in-house - and serial numbers for certs
issued by a single CA(!) *are* unique.

If the cert cannot be verified at all (not revoked, but "issued by
another CA" or "not signed at all"), I agree, the serial number does not
carry meaningful information - but this is not the case this patch is
about.
