So to the original question, yes, it is legit. The certificate expired :-(

That happened because all our build scripts will ignore certificate not
found type errors, throwing out a warning to the (very long) build log
instead. Microsoft's tools don't give a separate error for expired
certificates - they have a generic "No suitable certificate found" one.

It does it that way because individual developers don't have code signing
certificates (they're expensive, a pain to get, and we don't want random
ones with our name on them in existence, or to have lots of people with
access to the one we use). Obviously the developers need to be able to
build, even though they don't have a CSC.
